GAAR guidance: examples of non-abusive transactions—checklist

GAAR guidance: examples of non-abusive transactions—checklist The GAAR guidance aims to help interpret and apply the general anti-abuse rule (GAAR). This is why the GAAR guidance includes in Part D various examples to illustrate the types of arrangements HMRC considers should escape the GAAR and those which it considers should be caught by the GAAR. The current version of the GAAR guidance, as well as previous versions of the guidance, are available online (see: GAAR guidance). Part D of the GAAR guidance (which is dated 11 September 2020) contains the majority of the illustrative examples, but some are found in other parts of the guidance too.

Modern slavery—key performance indicators

Modern slavery—key performance indicators Section 54(5) of the Modern Slavery Act (MSA 2015) identifies six categories of information that may be included in an organisation’s slavery and human trafficking statement. One of these categories is information on the organisation’s effectiveness in ensuring slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in its business or supply chains, measured against such performance indicators as it considers appropriate. UK Home Office guidance on the transparency in supply chains provisions in MSA 2015, s 54 (Home Office guidance) goes further and states that organisations can report on key performance indicators (KPIs) in two broad ways by providing information on: • existing KPIs and whether they make their business or supply chains more vulnerable to modern slavery, eg by incentivising poor behaviours, and • KPIs introduced to measure progress and performance of anti-slavery measures undertaken Existing KPIs that may incentivise poor labour conditions include: • requiring unrealistically quick turnaround from suppliers • last-minute orders that stretch supplier capacity • unreasonable pressure on pricing KPIs that...

What is the logic, under the Loan Market Association leveraged facility agreement, for the split in conditions precedent (CP) between 'CPs to signing the agreement' and 'CPs to initial utilisation'? Further, in circumstances where a share sale and purchase agreement will be signed and the acquisition will complete on the same day, is such a split in CPs under the facility agreement necessary?

What is the logic, under the Loan Market Association leveraged facility agreement, for the split in conditions precedent (CP) between 'CPs to signing the agreement' and 'CPs to initial utilisation'? Further, in circumstances where a share sale and purchase agreement will be signed and the acquisition will complete on the same day, is such a split in CPs under the facility agreement necessary? The convention of splitting conditions precedent (CPs), into ‘CPs to signing the agreement’ and ‘CPs to initial utilisation’, reflects the fact that company acquisitions typically involve a split ‘exchange’, where the key documents are executed and the parties commit to the transaction (subject to certain conditions), and completion, where the money moves and the company or group legally changes hands. Certain CPs, such as corporate authorities, can be given prior to signing, while CPs such as security by the target group can’t be given until completion (the documents can be

Could a clause requiring consultants to pay back any shortfall in their billing target be treated as a penalty clause?

Could a clause requiring consultants to pay back any shortfall in their billing target be treated as a penalty clause? This Q&A examines liquidated damages and penalty clauses in the context of the following example scenario: The NHS pays a dental practice a set amount per year for the treatments it provides. If the practice doesn't meet its target, it must pay the shortfall to the NHS. Under the relevant dental consultancy agreement, dentists have an annual treatment target and get paid for each treatment performed. If the contract is terminated early, there is a clause which provides that the practice may require the consultant to pay back any shortfall in their pro-rated treatment target, to the extent that the shortfall has not been performed by any other consultant as at the date of termination. The question is, could a clause requiring consultants to pay back any shortfall in their billing target be treated as a penalty clause? Contractual liquidated damages clauses (a clause where the...
