Changes to Designs
-
Each change or variation of a design (but excluding changes of style only) must be approved by the administering authority. Once a design is changed, either in total or just an item or two, it would be expected that the employer would, within a period of 12 months, request that the superseded design or items be removed from the Register. The costs of rental, purchase or maintenance of the superseded design or items, incurred by employees, will cease to be eligible for tax deductibility from the date of the removal of the design or item from the Register.
-
It is therefore necessary for the employer to nominate which design or item is being replaced by the new variation.
-
Where a design change is proposed for more than one item of clothing, all changes must be presented for approval at the one time.
