under Rule 30(8)
THIS APPEAL against a decision of the Respondents with respect to a Default Surcharge being a reasonable excuse appeal as defined by rule 2 of the Value Added Tax Tribunals Rules 1986 as amended coming on for hearing this day
AND UPON HEARING Peter Goldstone, director, for the Appellant and Pauline Crinnion for the Respondents
AND THE parties present at the hearing by their said representatives stating pursuant to Rule 30(8) of the Value Added Tax Tribunals Rules 1986 as amended that they do not require the said decision to be recorded in a written document in accordance with Rule 30(1) of the said Rules
THIS TRIBUNAL FINDS THAT the fire at the Wimbledon premises was not a sufficiently direct cause of the default for the 12/04 period; as a result the default was the consequence of other trading conditions that did not provide a reasonable excuse
AND THIS TRIBUNAL DIRECTS THAT this appeal is DISMISSED
AND that there is to be no direction as to costs

Chairman
