SECTION 45-15   Disposal of shares in 100% subsidiary that leases plant  

45-15(1)    


A company (the former subsidiary ) is treated as if it had disposed of * plant, received its *market value for that disposal and immediately reacquired it for the same amount if:


(a) the former subsidiary has deducted or can deduct an amount for the decline in value of the plant; and


(b) the former subsidiary was a * 100% subsidiary of another company in a * wholly-owned group at a time when it * held the plant; and


(c) for most of the time when the former subsidiary held the plant, the plant was leased to another entity; and


(d) the main * business of the former subsidiary was to lease assets; and


(e) all or part of the lease period occurred on or after 22 February 1999; and


(f) on or after that day, the direct or indirect beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the * shares in the former subsidiary is acquired by an entity or entities none of which is a member of the wholly-owned group; and


(g) the plant ' s * written down value at the time of that acquisition is less than its market value at that time.


45-15(2)    
However, the former subsidiary is not treated as if it had disposed of * plant and reacquired it if the main business of each of the entities that acquired the direct or indirect beneficial ownership of * shares in the former subsidiary is the same as the main business of the * wholly-owned group of which the former subsidiary was a member.

45-15(3)    
The disposal and reacquisition of the * plant:


(a) is taken to have occurred when that direct or indirect beneficial ownership was acquired; and


(b) is taken not to have affected any lease of the plant.
