OP 11: Consolidated ICA payment of further income tax
or “Consolidated groups get credit for paying extra income tax”

You could also call this:

“This section about tax credits for group companies' research spending is no longer active”

You don’t need to know about this section of the law anymore. It used to be about how companies in a group could use money they spent on research and development to reduce their taxes. However, this part of the law was removed on 30 March 2017. The change applies to money spent from 1 April 2009 onwards. If you need to know about how research and development spending affects taxes now, you should look at other parts of the tax laws that are still in use.
