| 26/03/2012 | 49709 | Offshore Income Gains - The system is treating a Gift Out with Holdover Relief (GOH) as an income gain. This is because it now ignores the CGT rule code when deciding whether a transaction is exempt and classifies it as an income gain or chargeable to CGT according to whether it generates a gain or loss. Only movement codes CVO and TKP are treated as exempt. |
