(This note is not part of the Order)
A person who is a qualifying borrower, and who makes a payment of relevant loan interest to a qualifying lender, is entitled to pay that interest under deduction of tax under the mortgage interest relief at source scheme (MIRAS).
This Order prescribes the bodies named in article 3 as qualifying lenders from the dates specified in article 2.
This Order also amends previous Orders (in articles 4 to 7) by omitting the bodies named in those articles. These bodies therefore cease to be qualifying lenders.
Previous Orders that are in force are S.I. 1983/1907, 1984/1945, 1985/1697, 1986/386, 1440 and 2191, 1987/1224 and 2127, 1988/781 and 1962, 1989/908 and 1932, 1990/1298 and 1991/618 and 2604, and 1992/1745.
