(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Income Tax (Construction Industry Scheme) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/2045) which make provision for the construction industry scheme established by Chapter 3 of Part 3 of the Finance Act 2004.
Regulation 32 of SI 2005/2045 allows particular failures relevant to any tax obligation to be excepted from construction industry scheme compliance test. These exceptions are set out under Table 3. Regulation 2 of this statutory instrument adds a further exception; the late, or non-payment of an amount under £100 owed under the Tax Acts or Taxes Management Act.
A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is forseen.
The functions of the Commissioners of Inland Revenue were transferred to the Commissioners for Her Majesty´s Revenue and Customs by section 5(2) of the Commissioners for Revenue and Customs Act 2005 (c.11). Section 50 of that Act provides that in so far as it is appropriate in consequence of section 5, a reference in an enactment, however expressed, to the Commissioners of Inland Revenue is to be treated as a reference to the Commissioners for Her Majesty´s Revenue and Customs.
