Mr. Niall Cody:
When I talk about 60% of the settlement being interest and penalties, the 40% then represents the tax. In any settlement, if it is deliberate default or gross carelessness there are tax, interest and penalties. There are not always penalties charged as part of a tax settlement, it depends on the nature of the default.
