RULINGS DIRECTORATE
CORRESPONDENCE SUMMARY
Principal Issues:
Whether the election under subsection 13(16) is available where a vessel is partially disposed.
Position TAKEN:
Yes.
Reasons FOR POSITION TAKEN:
Legislation contemplates partial dispositions. The language of subsection 13(16) does not add a condition similar to subsection 20(16) that a taxpayer no longer own any property of a prescribed class or subsection 24(1).

Dear Sir:
Re: Capital Cost Allowance - Subsection 13(16)
This is in reply to your letter of May 3, 1995 in which you have asked us for our opinion on the meaning of the term "disposed of" as that term is used in subsection 13(16) of the Income Tax Act (the "Act") and, more particularly, whether such term would include a partial disposition of a vessel.
In our view, a disposition of a vessel in subsection 13(16) of the Act, includes a partial disposition and consequently a taxpayer would therefore not be precluded from electing under subsection 13(16) in respect of the proceeds of disposition arising upon a partial disposition.
We trust that the above comments are of assistance to you.
Yours truly,
Chief
