(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Landfill Tax Regulations 1996 (S.I. 1996/1527) to replace or to augment references to the Landfill Tax (Qualifying Fines) Order 2015 (S.I. 2015/845) with references to the Landfill Tax (Qualifying Fines) (No. 2) Order 2015 (S.I. 2015/1385). They reflect the fact that the Landfill Tax (Qualifying Fines) Order 2015 has lapsed and the Landfill Tax (Qualifying Fines) (No. 2) Order 2015 has come into effect.
A Tax Information and Impact Note has not been prepared for this instrument as it contains no substantive changes to tax policy.
1996 c. 8; paragraphs 2B and 2C of Schedule 5 were inserted into the Finance Act 1996 by section 65 and paragraph 7 of Schedule 15 of the Finance Act 2015 (c. 11). Under paragraph 8 of Schedule 15 to the Finance Act 2015, these amendments to the Finance Act 1996 have effect in relation to disposals that are made in England and Wales or Northern Ireland and made (or treated as made) on or after 1st April 2015. Section 70(1) of the Finance Act 1996 defines "the Commissioners" as those of Customs and Excise for the purposes of Part 3 of that Act. The functions of the Commissioners of Customs and Excise were transferred to the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs by section 5(1) of the Commissioners for Revenue and Customs Act 2005 (c. 11). Section 50(1) of the latter Act provides that a reference to the Commissioners of Customs and Excise shall be taken as a reference in an enactment to the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs.
S.I. 1996/1527, amended by S.I. 2004/769, S.I. 2009/1930, S.I. 2015/846. There are other amending instruments, but none is relevant.
