EZ 23F: Insurance for Canterbury earthquake damage causing disposal: optional timing rule for income, deductions
or “Optional timing for insurance money from Canterbury earthquake damage (no longer applies)”

You could also call this:

“Removed rule about timing of insurance and repair costs for Canterbury earthquake damage”

This part of the law was about insurance for fixing damage caused by earthquakes in Canterbury. It gave people a choice about when to count the money they got from insurance and when to count the costs of repairs in their taxes. However, this rule doesn’t exist anymore. It was taken out of the law on 1 April 2016, so it doesn’t apply to any tax years after that date.
