1. After paragraph 9 of the 1952 Arrangement there shall be inserted the following new paragraph:
"9A. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Arrangement, any person who is assessed in accordance with, or is exempt from assessment by virtue of, the provisions of-
(a)Article 123A of the Income Tax (Jersey) Law 1961, as amended, or
(b)Article 123B of the Income Tax (Jersey) Law 1961, as amended,
in respect of any income or profits shall not be entitled under this Arrangement to any relief or exemption from United Kingdom tax which is computed by reference to that income or those profits, unless that person is assessed under those provisions on the whole of that income or those profits at a rate which is not less than the standard rate for the year in question under the Finance (Jersey) Law 1994 and subsequent enactments.".
2.-(1) Each of the parties to this Arrangement shall notify to the other the completion of the procedures required by law for the bringing into force of this Arrangement.
(2) This Arrangement shall enter into force on the date of the receipt of the later of those notifications and shall thereupon have effect in the United Kingdom in relation to income and profits arising on and after that date.
(This note is not part of the Order)
The Arrangement scheduled to this Order amends the Arrangement between the United Kingdom and the States of Jersey which is scheduled to the Double Taxation Relief (Taxes on Income) (Jersey) Order 1952.
The effect of the amendment is to make relief or exemption from United Kingdom tax under the 1952 Arrangement dependent on a person who is entitled to the benefit of certain special provisions of Jersey law being assessed under those provisions on the whole of his income at the standard rate of tax in force in Jersey at the relevant time.
The Arrangement will have effect in respect of income or profits arising on or after the date on which the Arrangement enters into force. The date of entry into force will in due course be published in theLondon, EdinburghandBelfast Gazettes.
