I wish to refer to something that was written in the Comptroller and Auditor General's report. He said: "The Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997 provides for the application of interest for the late payment of tax and there is no provision for it to be mitigated even after qualifying disclosure." Does that legal provision contradict Revenue's operating procedures?
