               Regard being had to Article 6(2), first subparagraph, (a) and (b), Article 11.A(1)(c) and Article 17(2) of the Sixth Directive, (1) is a taxable person who makes temporary use for private purposes of part of a capital item of his business entitled to deduct the VAT levied on expenditure incurred in respect of permanent alterations carried out exclusively with a view to that use for private purposes?

               For the purpose of answering this question, does it make any difference whether the taxable person was charged VAT, which he deducted, on the acquisition of the capital item?
