Sections 172(3) to 172(6) of the Finance Act 2006 apply for determining when a supply is to be regarded as made for the purposes of this note.)

Section 50(1) of the latter Act provides that a reference to the Commissioners of Customs and Excise shall be taken as a reference to the Commissioners for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs. Back [1]
