Income Tax
The taxpayer was obliged to visit an office in Leeds once a week. He lived in Norfolk. He sought to set off the travel expenses against his schedule E Income Tax. As a home worker, he also sought the expenses of maintaining an office at home. Both requirements were imposed by his employers as part of their home-working scheme. Held: The tests for setting off such expenses were strict. To come within the new definition, the travelling expenses had to be incurred performing employment duties, but also attributable to the necessary attendance of the employee in the performance of those duties, and not to be excluded by the definitions of ordinary commuting or private travel. Under those definitions the travel was part of his ordinary commuting. The home expenses were not necessary for the employment because the home working scheme was optional.

Income Tax
The appellant was an employee and director of the company. He ceased employment, and sought to receive payments from his pensions, but continued to hold the position of director. Held: The provisions of the pension scheme had to be read in the context of the 1970 Act, and words in the trust instrument should be read with the same meanings. Here 'retirement' meant cessation of employment, and a director was to be included as an employee. It followed that relief was not available.

European, Income Tax
Europa Freedom of establishment - Free movement of capital - Income tax - Tax advantages for the transfer at undervalue of shares to companies in which the transferor has a holding
Swedish legislation provided that a transfer at an undervalue to a foreign company in which the transferor had an interest would be treated as a transfer at market value, and the same would apply in the case of a transfer to a Swedish company in which such foreign person had a holding. Held: Articles 43 and 48 EC precluded such a provision because it restricted the right of establishment of the foreign company in Sweden. It excluded the transferor at undervalue of shares from the benefit of deferral of tax due on capital gains made on those shares where the transfer was to a foreign legal person in which the transferor directly or indirectly had a holding, provided that that holding gave him definite influence over the company's decisions and allowed him to determine its activities, or to a Swedish limited company which was a branch of such a foreign legal person.
