(3) (a) Where the deceased has, either before or after the passing of this Act, made a disposition of property in favour of a company controlled by the deceased, the property shall, for all purposes of estate duty, be deemed to be property taken by the company under a disposition operating as an immediate gift inter vivos within the meaning of paragraph (c) of subsection (1) of section 2 of the Finance Act, 1894 , and any consideration received by the deceased in relation thereto shall not be treated as consideration for the purpose either of section 3 of the Finance Act, 1894 , or of subsection (1) of section 7 of that Act.

For each year or part of a year during which a number of beneficiaries including the deceased person was in occupation or possession, the deceased person's occupation or possession shall be deemed to have been a payment of income at an annual rate of six (divided by the number of beneficiaries including the deceased person) per cent. of such market value.
