Principal Issues: Whether paragraph 93.1(2)(d)(i) of the Act permits the partner a deduction equal to his share of the gross amount of the dividends received by the partnership?
Position: Yes.
Reasons: Based on administrative practice of the CCRA (see paragraph 4 of IT-138R - even though that bulletin has been withdrawn, the position in paragraph 4 still stands) and the policy intent of that subparagraph.

Dear XXXXXXXXXX:
Re: Subparagraph 93.1(2)(d)(i) of the Income Tax Act (the "Act")
We are writing in reply to your letter of November 7, 2001, in which you requested our view as to whether subparagraph 93.1(2)(d)(i) of the Act permits the partner a deduction equal to his share of the gross amount of the dividends received by the partnership. We apologize for the delay in responding.
You noted that the Department of Finance in its response to question 30 at the 2000 APFF Conference Round Table indicated that the limitation is the gross amount of the dividends included for the purposes of determining the partner's income of the partnership. You enquired whether the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (the CCRA) intends to interpret subparagraph 93.1(2)(d)(i) of the Act in a manner consistent with the view of the Department of Finance.
The CCRA will interpret that subparagraph in a manner consistent with the view of the Department of Finance noted above.
Yours truly,
for Director
International and Trusts Division
Income Tax Rulings Directorate
Policy and Legislation Branch
