CX 54: Share-lending collateral under share-lending arrangements
or “Rules for tax-free collateral in share-lending deals”
You could also call this:

“Emissions unit transfers: Tax-free income from certain financial deals”

When you transfer an emissions unit under a special kind of financial arrangement, you might get money that’s related to how much the emissions unit is worth. This money is called “excluded income”. This means you don’t have to pay tax on it. The special kind of financial arrangement is explained in another part of the law called section EW 5(11C). This rule helps you understand what counts as excluded income when you’re dealing with emissions units.
