" g if t' ca u g h t by this Law' has the meaning given in paragraph (9) of Article 2;".

FINANCE AND ECONOMICS COMMITTEE

Explanatory Note

Paragraph 1(2)(d) of the Second Schedule to the Regulations inserts a definition of "gift caught by this Law" in Article 1 (1) of the principal Law as it is modified by these Regulations.

This amendment inserts the same definition in the Third Schedule, which sets out for the convenience of readers the whole of the Law as so modified.

The correction, which is necessitated by a drafting oversight, involves no change of substance to the draft Regulations.
