One of the main messages regarding capital allowances is that this is neither a tax avoidance scheme nor a recent loophole that HMRC are unaware of and will regard with suspicion. The primary aim of the UK statutory law dating back to 1878 was to allow commercial property owners to improve their property and the provision of this benefit holds as true today as it did then. The law has been revised and refined over recent years and was simplified in a major way in 1971 to eliminate burdensome record-keeping and computational requirements; a further simplification in 1984 saw the elimination of initial and first year allowances, among others. Further revisions followed in 1990 and the current legislation we are working to is the Capital Allowance Act 2001.
