EC 47E: Prospective breeders commencing actual breeding businesses

You could also call this:

“Starting a bloodstock breeding business with previously purchased stud-founding bloodstock”

When you start a bloodstock breeding business using bloodstock that are not stud-founding bloodstock, this section may apply to you.

If you own stud-founding bloodstock that you bought as a prospective bloodstock breeder, you can ask the Commissioner to treat this bloodstock as part of your new business.

You need to ask the Commissioner within 1 month of starting your business. You also need to provide any information the Commissioner asks for to support your request.

If the Commissioner says yes to your request, some rules about recovering money after making deductions for high-priced bloodstock will not apply to you and your stud-founding bloodstock from the day you started your business. These rules are found in sections CG 8B, CG 8C, and EC 47B to EC 47D.
