BLM74610 - Schedule 12 FA 1997: Part II: definition of a lease within Part II


To come within Part II, a lease must satisfy the definition in FA97/Sch12/Para16. All four conditions have to be satisfied:

  • the lease was granted on or after 26 November 1996 ( BLM74615); and
  • the lease forms part of a 'new scheme' ( BLM74630); and
  • the condition in Paragraph 3(1) - that the lease must be treated as a finance lease or loan - must have been satisfied on or after 26 November 1996 ( BLM74660); and

the lease does not come within Part I ( BLM74665).

The four conditions are discussed in turn in the paragraphs that follow.
