Those paragraphs restrict the period within which the Revenue Commissioners may make enquiries or raise assessments in relation to underpayments of capital acquisitions tax to a period of 4 years from the date of receipt of the return by the Revenue Commissioners.

- d)of that subsection, in so far as it relates to section 57
(2)to (5 of the Capital Acquisitions Tax Consolidation Act 2003 , on the date this Order is made (31 October 2003). Those subsections restrict the repayment of capital acquisitions tax to valid claims made within 4 years of the later of the valuation date or the date of payment of the tax concerned. A valid claim is one where the Revenue Commissioners have been provided with all the information to enable them establish the extent of the overpayment. This measure is being introduced subject to transitional arrangements. Paragraph (d) will come into effect other than in relation to section 57
(2)to
(5)of the Capital Acquisitions Tax Consolidation Act 2003 , as respects repayments of capital acquisitions tax made on or after 1 November 2003. The new provisions will also apply to repayments made on or after 1 November 2003 in respect of claims for repayment made by virtue of section 18

Under the new section 57, interest on a repayment will only be paid where the repayment has not been made by the Revenue Commissioners within the period of 183 days of receipt of a valid claim for repayment and then only from the expiration of that period. An exception to this general rule is that interest will be paid from the date of the event giving rise to the repayment for valid claims made where the Revenue Commissioners have made an error in the operation of capital acquisitions tax. The rate of interest on such repayments will be 0.011 per cent per day or part of a day.
