Definitions

In the guidance at BIM72205 to BIM72335 the terms ‘deemed trade’ and ‘second deemed trade’ are shorthand for ‘deemed trade or profession’ (ICTA88/S111 (4)(b)) and ‘second deemed trade or profession’ (ICTA88/S111 (8)(b)). Reference in this guidance to 'old' ICTA88 is a reference to the taxation provisions as they applied prior to the introduction of the new current year basis of assessment.
