the words “paragraph 3a”; and

by inserting after paragraph 3 the following paragraph:

“3a. (1) For the purposes of paragraph 3, where a foreign income is receivable in respect of a period which overlaps the basis period (which is referred to in this paragraph as the overlapping period), that foreign income when received shall be apportioned between the part of the overlapping period which overlaps the basis period and the remaining part of the overlapping period.

The apportionment under subparagraph (1) shall be made in the proportion that the number of days of the overlapping period that fall into the basis period bears to the total number of days of the overlapping period, unless the Director General, having regard to the facts of any particular case, otherwise directs.

So much of that foreign income as is apportioned to the overlapping part of the overlapping period shall be treated as foreign income of the person for the basis period.”.
