In addition to answering the specific types of defence covered in DMBM666390 you may also have to explain how the due and payable date of the tax is determined. For example, for SA you would have to inform the court that ‘the tax is charged under section 59A TMA1970. The first instalment of that tax, to which my claim for interest relates, became payable on the 31st of January 2008’.

Refer to the following table, which gives the relevant legislation.

Where the assessment to which the interest relates was the subject of an appeal, the provisions of TMA70/ S55 may apply. This will mean that the due and payable date is affected by the appeal. The table that follows gives the circumstances in which Section 55 applies together with the statutory authority.

Circumstances	Statutory Authority
Tax not the subject of an application to postpone payment	TMA70/ S55 (2)
NPA not settled by agreement	TMA70/ S55 (6)
NPA settled by agreement	TMA70/ S55 (7)
Tax previously postponed (or any increase) on determination of appeal by the Commissioners	TMA70/ S55 (9)
Tax payable on settlement of appeal by agreement	TMA70/S55 (9) applied by TMA70/ S54 (1)

 

The due dates for assessments under ICTA88/ SCH13 and ICTA88/ SCH16 (formerly Schedules 14 and 20 FA 1972) are not affected by an appeal. This provided for in paragraph 10 (3) of the respective schedules.

 

Where the assessment is the subject of an appeal determined after the normal due date, no statutory provision governs the date on which tax becomes payable, except as mentioned above. In practice, the due and payable date is taken as the date of determination of the appeal.
