Omission of the specified domestic transaction provision for related-party expenditure, without a saving clause for pending actions, treats the omitted provision as if it had never existed.

Applying this settled position, the Tribunal allowed the taxpayer's grounds and did not sustain the assessment founded on the impugned transfer-pricing reference.
