No, I am sorry. I am looking for 60 days based on the aspect query. The Revenue is looking for people to come back in 21 days. I believe the period should be extended on the grounds of fair play. This is not about one individual. Approximately 400 suppliers are involved and it potentially extends to other suppliers.

This matter requires a test case to be heard. For the sake of practicality, the Revenue should extend the period for the aspect query for people to go back to 60 days rather than 21 days. That is the first point.

The second point is that in that period, the Revenue should allow a test case to be heard. Moreover, in that period the Revenue should, on the grounds of fair play, suspend any possible interest and penalties accruing on the under-declaration of income determined by the Revenue in these letters. I am suggesting this should be done on the grounds of fair play.
