These Regulations amend the Hydrocarbon Oil Regulations 1973 to increase to £250 the minimum amount for which a claim to duty relief may be made by a person approved to use a repayment scheme. The amendment does not affect the provisions that any claim may be for a period up to 3 years, but is intended to reduce the number of small claims.
1979 c. 5; section 24(1) and Schedule 4 were amended by section 6(2) and (3) respectively of the Finance Act 1981 (c. 35), by section 4(3) and (6) respectively of the Finance Act 1982 (c. 39), and (as concerns section 24 only) by section 1(2) of the Finance Act 1987 (c. 16).
S.I. 1981/1134; regulation 3(e)(ii) amended regulation 40(d) of the Hydrocarbon Oil Regulations 1973, S.I. 1973/ 1311, by substituting "£50" for "£10" as appeared therein (£10 was the minimum amount that could be the subject of any single repayment claim by an approved repayment user).
