After section 59 of the ^M21Land Commission Act 1967 insert—

59A

1 Subject to the provisions of this section, no levy shall be chargeable in respect of a chargeable act or event which occurs after 5th April 1969 if—

a the top value does not exceed £1,500, and

b relief under this section is not excluded by subsection (2) below.In the following provisions of this section—“the applicant for relief” means the person who under section 36 of this Act is liable for levy in respect of the chargeable act or event apart from this section, and any person on whose behalf he is acting,“the financial year” means the financial year in which that chargeable act or event took place, and “financial year”means a year ending on 31st March.

2 No relief shall be given under subsection (1) above if, in relation to any other chargeable act or event in the financial year, the applicant for relief, or his or her wife or husband, is—

a the person, or one of the persons, liable for levy (apart from this section), or

b a person on whose behalf the person, or any of the persons, so liable for levy is acting,

unless the top value mentioned in subsection (1)(a) above, when added to the total of the top values for any such other chargeable acts or events, does not exceed £1,500.

3 For the purposes of this section—

a the personal representatives of a deceased person shall be regarded as one person distinct from the persons who may from time to time be the personal representatives,

b the trustees of a settlement shall be treated as one person distinct from the persons who may from time to time be trustees, and from the trustees of any other settlement,

c a person exercising the powers of a tenant for life under the ^M22Settled Land Act 1925 shall be treated as a trustee of the settlement.

4 No account shall be taken under subsection (2) above of any chargeable act or event unless some amount of levy is chargeable in respect of it, or would be so chargeable apart from the provisions of this section.

5 If, apart from the provisions of this section, levy in Case C in respect of the same chargeable act or event is chargeable on two or more different assessable interests, the chargeable act or event shall be treated for the purposes of this section as different chargeable acts or events related to those different assessable interests.

6 For the purpose of determining whether this section applies to a chargeable act or event in any financial year the Commission may under section 43 of this Act serve a notice as respects any other chargeable act or event which in the opinion of the Commission has or may have occurred in that financial year, and the information which may be required under that section shall include information about any person on whose behalf the person served with the notice has been acting in relation to that act or event, and any other information which assists or may assist in establishing whether subsection (2) above applies to the other chargeable act or event.

^C944 ¶

1 After section 60 of the Land Commission Act 1967 insert—

60A

1 This section has effect where a project of material development consisting exclusively of the building of a single dwelling-house is begun, and—

a the developing owner acquired his assessable interest in the land comprised in the project as a gift, or as a legacy, and intends to occupy the dwelling-house as his only or main residence, or

b the developing owner intends to give his assessable interest in that land to some other person who intends to occupy the dwelling-house as his only or main residence, or

c where section 32(5)(b) or (c) of this Act applies to the developing owner (so that he is a prospective purchaser under an enforceable contract), the contract is to acquire for less than full consideration (so as to be partly by way of gift) and the developing owner intends to occupy the dwelling-house as his only or main residence,

and the person so intending to occupy the dwelling-house is in fact the first occupier and continues in occupation for at least six months, or if earlier until his death.

2 No relief shall be given under subsection (1)(b) or (c) above unless the person intending to occupy the dwelling-house in fact acquires the assessable interest as a gift, or as a legacy, within twelve months, or such longer period as the Commission may allow, from the beginning of the project.

3 No relief shall be given under this section as respects a gift made before 1st July 1948, or as respects a legacy on a death before that date.

4 If the developing owner so elects, he shall be treated for the purposes of Case C levy in respect of the project as if he acquired the gift or legacy for capital consideration equal to its market value—

a where subsection (1)(a) above applies, at the time of the gift or death,

b where subsection (1)(b) or (c) above applies, at the beginning of the project,

and for the purposes of Schedule 5 to this Act he shall be deemed to have acquired the gift or legacy at that time by way of a disposition to him which was the last relevant disposition.

5 In determining the market value of a gift or legacy at the time given by subsection (4) above, account shall be taken of the state of the land at that time, and of the incidents attaching to the assessable interest at that time, and of all other circumstances, including circumstances concerning planning permission, which would have been taken into account by a purchaser at that time.

6 If the time given by subsection (4) above falls between 30th June 1948 and 6th April 1967, Part V of Schedule 4 to this Act shall have effect in relation to the project as if paragraph 49 of that Schedule were omitted, and if that time does not fall between those dates, the acquisition which took place, or is deemed to have taken place, at that time, shall be treated for the purposes of Schedule 5 to this Act as a disposition within paragraph 3(b) of that Schedule, that is to say a duly notified disposition after 6th April 1967.

7 References in this section to an assessable interest in the land comprised in the project include references to an assessable interest in any part of the land, and where the gift or legacy relates only to part of that land, or in part to land not comprised in the project, this section shall apply with any necessary apportionments and computations.

8 Where—

a part only of the developing owner’s assessable interest is derived from a gift or legacy (that is to say it is a gift or legacy of a lesser or less valuable interest or one relating to part only of the land in which the assessable interest subsists), or

b part only of the developing owner’s assessable interest is included in a gift or legacy from the developing owner,

paragraphs (a) and (b) of subsection (1) above, and the provisions of this Act applying for the purposes of those paragraphs, shall have effect as if the assessable interest were two separate interests one of which is the subject of the gift or legacy, and all such apportionments, computations and valuations shall be made as are necessary to give effect to this subsection.

9 For the purposes of this section—

a property acquired by way of gift includes property acquired for less than market value if the Land Commission are satisfied that the grantor intended to give a benefit by accepting less than market value,

b property acquired as a legacy includes property appropriated in or towards satisfaction of any interest or share in property devolving under a testamentary disposition or on an intestacy,

c any reference to the building of a dwelling-house shall be construed as including a reference to the construction or laying out of any garage, out-house, garden, yard, court, forecourt or other appurtenance for occupation with, and for the purposes of, the dwelling-house.

10 This section shall not have ellect unless notice is duly served under section 38 of this Act in respect of the project consisting of the building of the dwelling-house, but the Commission may for the purposes of this section accept such a notice although out of time under subsection (2) of that section.

11 An election under this section shall be made within such time and in such form as the Commission direct.

12 Relief shall be given under this section on proof of the relevant facts to the satisfaction of the Commission.

13 It is hereby declared that any information given to the Commission for the purpose of obtaining relief under this section is information which the person giving it is required to give under this Part of this Act, and section 81(5) of this Act shall apply accordingly.

2 The ^M25Land Commission Act 1967 shall be deemed always to have had effect as amended by this section.

3 The Commission shall make all such repayments of levy and interest received by them as are required to give effect to subsection (2) above, and shall deduct the amount so repaid from the sums falling to be paid into the Exchequer under section 4(2) of the said Act.

4 Any objection to a notice of assessment of levy on the ground that the amendments made by this section affect the amount of the levy may be made under section 46 of the said Act at any time before 1st January 1970, although out of time under that section.

b the said excess over £10,000.

4 This paragraph shall only apply if the grantor has occupied the dwelling-house as his only or main residence for at least six months (or for two or more periods adding up to at least six months) out of the eighteen months ending with the date of the disposition.

3 If paragraph 20 below does not apply to the relevant interest (or where there is more than one relevant interest, to one of them) because paragraph 18(i) or (ii) above is not satisfied, liability for levy (with any interest) in respect of that relevant interest shall be a joint and several liability of the developing owner and of the other party to the contract.

4 Section 83(2)(c) of this Act shall not make it unlawful for any party to the contract to incur a liability to indemnify the developing owner for any amount or additional amount of levy (with interest) payable only because the contract is not performed in accordance with paragraph 18(i) or (ii) above.

a a project of material development of the whole or part of the relevant land was begun after that disposition was made but before the relevant date, and

b the beginning of the carrying out of that project constituted a chargeable act or event, except where, in relation to the project, some person was chargeable to Case C levy as a developing owner under contract to acquire the whole of the chargeable interest, or, where the chargeable act or event is the grant of a tenancy, as a developing owner under contract to acquire an equivalent tenancy out of the chargeable interest.

2 For the purposes of this paragraph—

a a person is chargeable to Case C levy as a developing owner under contract to acquire an interest if section 32(7)(b) or (c) applies to him, and the interest is the assessable interest, or one of the assessable interests, by virtue of which he is the developing owner, and

b a person is so chargeable as a developing owner under contract to acquire a tenancy out of an interest if the said section 32(7)(b) or (c) applies to him, and the assessable interest, or one of the assessable interests, by virtue of which he is the developing owner is such a tenancy as is mentioned in the said paragraph (c) to be granted out of the interest.

4 At the end of paragraph 2 of Schedule 11 to the said Act (credit carried forward from Case C) insert— “ Provided that where the said paragraph 20 had effect, that is to say had effect as respects the liability of the developing owner as a party to a contract, the credit shall not be carried forward to any disposition by the other party to the contract, or by a person who takes from that other party otherwise than for valuable consideration. ”

5 Paragraph 19 of Schedule 5 to the ^M29Land Commission Act 1967 (which is superseded by this section) is hereby repealed.
