(1)For each of the following chargeable periods, namely—

(a)the first chargeable period ending after 31st December 1982 [F54and before 1st January 1987] in which, subject to sections 140 and 141 below, a gross profit accrues to a participator from an oil field, and

(2)Subject to sections 140 and 141 below, APRT shall be payable on the gross profit accruing to the participator in the chargeable period in question and shall be payable

[F56(a)for the chargeable period ending on 30th June 1983, at the rate of 20 per cent.;

140 Increase of gross profit by reference to royalties in kind.U.K.

(1)This section applies where part of a participator’s share of the oil won and saved from an oil field is delivered by him in a chargeable period to the [F58OGA] pursuant to a requirement imposed under the terms of a licence granted under the M27 Petroleum (Production) Act 1934.

(2)In determining for the purposes of APRT the gross profit accruing to the participator from the field in the chargeable period the aggregate of the amounts mentioned in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of subsection (5) of section 2 of the principal Act shall be increased by multiplying it by a fraction of which—

(a)the numerator is the total of the quantity of oil won from the field which is delivered or relevantly appropriated by him in the period including the oil delivered to the [F58OGA] ; and

(b)the denominator is that total excluding the oil delivered to the [F58OGA] .

(3)Where oil is delivered pursuant to a requirement which relates to oil of one or more kinds but not to others, subsection (2) above shall apply only in relation to oil of the kind or kinds to which the requirement relates ; and where oil is delivered pursuant to a requirement which specifies different proportions in relation to different kinds of oil, that subsection shall apply separately in relation to each of those kinds.

(4)For the purposes of subsection (5) of section 2 of the principal Act as it applies in determining for the purposes of APRT the gross profit accruing to a participator, the exclusion by paragraph 4 of Schedule 3 to that Act of oil delivered to the [F58OGA] under the terms of a licence granted under the said Act of 1934 shall be deemed to extend to oil which is inadvertently delivered to him in excess of the amount required ; and oil so delivered shall be treated for the purposes of this section as delivered pursuant to a requirement imposed under the terms of such a licence.

(5)Any reference in this section or in section 141 below to the purposes of APRT includes a reference to the purpose of determining whether APRT is payable for a chargeable period by virtue of section 139(1) above.

141 Reduction of gross profit by reference to exempt allowance.U.K.

(1)For the purposes of APRT there shall be for each oil field in each chargeable period an exempt allowance of 500,000 metric tonnes of oil divided between the participators in shares proportionate to their shares of the oil won and saved from the field during the period.

(2)If the gross profit accruing to a participator in a chargeable period from a field exceeds the cash equivalent of his share of the exempt allowance, the gross profit shall be reduced to an amount equal to the excess.

(3)If the gross profit accruing to a participator in a chargeable period from a field does not exceed the cash equivalent of his share of the exempt allowance, the gross profit shall be reduced to nil.

(4)Subject to subsection (5) below, the cash equivalent of a participator’s share of the exempt allowance for an oil field for a chargeable period shall be equal to such proportion of the gross profit accruing to him from the field in that period (before any reduction under this section) as his share of the exempt allowance bears to his share, exclusive of excluded oil within the meaning of section 10 of the principal Act, of the oil won and saved from the field during the period.

(5)If a participator in an oil field so elects by notice in writing given to the Board at the time when he makes his return under paragraph 2 of Schedule 2 to the principal Act for a chargeable period, the cash equivalent of his share of the exempt allowance for the field for that period shall be determined under subsection (4) above—

(a)to the extent that his share of that exempt allowance does not exceed his share of the oil (other than gas) won and saved from the field in the period, as if in computing the gross profit accruing to him in the period all amounts relating to gas fell to be disregarded; and

(b)to the extent, if any, that his share of that allowance exceeds his share of the oil (other than gas) so won and saved, as if in computing the gross profit so accruing all amounts relating to oil other than gas fell to be disregarded.

(6)In this section references to a participator’s share of the oil won and saved from a field are to his share as expressed in metric tonnes and for that purpose 1,100 cubic metres of oil consisting of gas at a temperature of 15 degrees centigrade and pressure of one atmosphere shall be counted as equivalent to one metric tonne of oil other than gas.

142 Consequences of crediting APRT against liability for petroleum revenue tax.U.K.

(1)If it appears to the Board—

(a)that any amount of APRT credit which has been set off against a participator’s assessed liability to petroleum revenue tax for any chargeable period ought not to have been so set off, or that the amount so set off has become excessive, or

(b)that, disregarding any liability to or credit for APRT, a participator is entitled to a repayment of petroleum revenue tax for any chargeable period,

then, for the purpose of securing that the liabilities of the participator to petroleum revenue tax and APRT (including interest on unpaid tax) for the chargeable period in question are what they ought to have been, the Board may make such assessments to, and shall make such repayments of, petroleum revenue tax and APRT as in their judgment are necessary in the circumstances.

(2)In a case falling within paragraph (a) of subsection (1) above, any necessary assessment to petroleum revenue tax may, where the revised amount of set off is ascertained as a result of an appeal, be made at any time before the expiry of the period of six years beginning at the end of the chargeable period in which the appeal is finally determined; and in a case falling within paragraph (b) of that subsection any necessary assessment to APRT may be made at any time before the expiry of the period of six years beginning at the end of the chargeable period in which the participator became entitled as mentioned in that paragraph.

153 Variable rates of interest for government lending. U.K.

(1)For section 5 of the National Loans Act 1968 (rates of interest) there shall be substituted the following section—

5 Rates of interest.

(1)This section has effect as respects any rate of interest—

(a)which under any provision in Schedule 1 to this Act is to be determined in accordance with this Act, or

(b)which is to be determined by the Treasury under section 3 of this Act,

and, where any enactment passed after this Act provides for the payment of interest on advances or loans made out of the National Loans Fund, and for the rate at which that interest is to be payable to be determined or approved by the Treasury, then, except as otherwise expressly provided, this section has effect as respects that rate of interest.

(2)For any loan or class of loans the Treasury may determine or approve either—

(a)a fixed rate of interest, that is to say a specified rate or a formula rate which is to be applied, throughout the period of the loan or any loan of that class, with the value which it has when the loan is made, or

(b)a variable rate of interest, that is to say a formula rate which is to be applied, for each of the successive periods of the loan or any loan of that class which are of a length specified in the determination or approval (in this section referred to as interest periods), with the value which it has at the beginning of that period;

and in this subsection “formula rate” means a rate which is so expressed (whether by means of a formula or otherwise) that it will or may have different values at different times.

(3)The Treasury shall, on each occasion when they determine or approve a fixed rate of interest for a loan or class of loans, satisfy themselves that the rate would be at least sufficient to prevent a loss if—

(a)the loan, or any loan of that class—

(i)were made forthwith, and

(ii)were met out of money borrowed by the Treasury at the lowest rate at which the Treasury are for the time being able to borrow money (of whatever amount) for a comparable period, and on other comparable terms, and

(b)the interest on the money so borrowed, together with the Treasury’s expenses of borrowing, were set off against the interest received on the loan.

(4)The Treasury shall, on, each occasion when they determine or approve a variable rate of interest for a loan or class of loans, satisfy themselves that the rate would be at least sufficient to prevent a loss if—

(a)the loan, or any loan of that class,—

(i)were made forthwith,

(ii)were to be repaid at the end of its first interest period, and

(iii)were met out of money borrowed by the Treasury at the lowest rate at which the Treasury are for the time being able to borrow money (of whatever amount) for a comparable period, and

(b)the interest on the money so borrowed were set off against the interest received on the loan.

(5)If at any time the Treasury are satisfied that a rate of interest determined or approved for a class of loans, or for a loan not yet made, would not meet the requirements of subsection (3) or, as the case may be, subsection (4) above if it were determined or approved at that time, that determination or approval shall be withdrawn; and another rate shall be determined or approved in accordance with that subsection for further loans of that class or, as the case may be, for that loan.

(6)The Treasury may in determining or approving a rate of interest take into account any consideration justifying a rate higher than that required by subsection (3) or (4) above.

(7)Different fixed rates of interest may be determined or approved in respect of loans which are to be made for the same length of time; and different variable rates of interest may be determined or approved for loans which are to have interest periods of the same length.

(8)The Treasury shall cause—

(a)all rates of interest determined from time to time by them in respect of local loans, and

(b)all other rates of interest determined from time to time by them otherwise than by virtue of subsection (6) above,

to be published in the London and Edinburgh Gazettes as soon as may be after the determination of those rates.

(2)The enactments amended by Schedule 1 to that Act (government lending and advances) shall have effect as if in the third column of that Schedule for the word “fixed”, wherever it occurs, there were substituted the word “ determined ”.
