Worksheet 2: Project pool deduction

  • Use column (3) where your project pool contains only project amounts incurred on or after 10 May 2006, and the project started to operate on or after that date.
  • Use column (4) where your project started to operate before 10 May 2006, or where the project started to operate on or after 10 May 2006 but the project contains project amounts incurred before that date.
  • You cannot use column (3) if you abandon, sell or otherwise dispose of an existing project on or after 10 May 2006 and then start operating it again, just so that you can work out deductions at the higher rate.
