DIRECTION

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 Kevin Spittle, director, for the Appellant and Philip Webb for the Respondents

AND THIS TRIBUNAL having heard this appeal and having announced its decision

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 payment order was made in time (on 5 October 2005) and the Appellant acted reasonably in making a further order the next day when it appeared that the bank had erroneously counteracted the first payment order instead of organizing a CHAPS payment

AND THIS TRIBUNAL DIRECTS THAT this appeal is allowed

AND that there is to be no direction as to costs
