RG 1: FDP rules and their application
or “FDP rules no longer apply since 30 June 2009”

You could also call this:

“This provision about foreign dividends no longer applies”

You no longer need to worry about foreign dividends in this part of the law. The rule about foreign dividends used to be here, but it was removed on 30 June 2009. This means that this specific rule doesn’t apply anymore. If you want to know about how foreign dividends are treated now, you might need to look at other parts of the tax law.
