  • amendments 3 and 6, providing that a fund that is 70% controlled by category A investors meets the diversity of ownership condition
  • amendment 4, allowing existing funds marketed before the commencement of the QAHC regime to be treated as meeting Condition A of the genuine diversity of ownership condition in the Offshore Funds (Tax) Regulations, SI 2009/3001 reg 75(2) if certain information has been produced by the fund and has been made available to HMRC, and
  • amendment 5, adjusting the rules for determining whether a fund is close.

The following government amendments will be considered by the committee when it continues its work in January:

Schedule 15: Large businesses: notification of uncertain tax treatment

  • amendments 8 and 10, aiming to ensure that Sch 15 operates as intended where provision for uncertain liabilities is recognised in the accounts of a partnership.

The Public Bill Committee was scheduled to reconvene on Wednesday, 5 January 2022.
