**第一項**  税務署長は、施行日前に延納の許可を受けた相続税額で、当該相続税額の計算の基礎となつた財産の価額の合計額のうちに新法第七十条の六第一項に規定する立木の価額の占める割合が十分の五以上であるもののうち、同日以後にその分納税額の納期限が到来するものについては、同日から四月以内にされた当該延納の許可を受けた者の申請により、同日以後の延納期間の二分の一に相当する期間（当該期間に一月に満たない端数を生じたときは、これを一月として計算した期間）の範囲内において延納期間を延長し、及びその納付すべき分納税額を同項の規定に準じて変更することができる。

With regard to an amount of inheritance tax for which permission for payment in installments was granted before the Effective Date and for which the ratio of the value of standing timber prescribed in Article 70-6, paragraph (1) of the New Act to the total value of the property that formed the basis for the calculation of that amount of inheritance tax is five-tenths or more, where the due date for payment of its installment payments arrives on or after that date, the district director may, upon an application filed within four months from that date by the person who was granted that permission for payment in installments, extend the period of payment in installments within the range of a period equivalent to one half of the period of payment in installments on or after that date (or, if that period includes a fraction of less than one month, the period calculated by counting that fraction as one month), and change the installment payments to be paid in accordance with the provisions of that paragraph.
