Dear Sirs:
RE: Director's Liability for Corporation Tax
This is in reply to your letter of June 11, 1993 in which you request the statutory sections of the governing legislation that creates the director's liability for a corporation's debt for Corporations Tax. We apologize for the delay in responding to your request.
The provisions of the Income Tax Act dealing with director's liability, can be found under section 227.1 of the Income Tax Act. We have enclosed copies of statutes relating to the above-mentionned section of the Income Tax Act along with the related technical notes. Also enclosed, is a copy of Information Circular 89-2 dealing with directors' liability.
We trust that the above comments will be of assistance to you.
Yours truly,
Maurice Bisson for DirectorBusiness and General DivisionRulings DirectorateLegislative and Intergovernmental Affairs and Branch
