The article has jogged my memory. This issue is incredibly important because it these cases do not involve Joe and Josephine Soap. Most of them relate to corporation tax. We have a very generous corporation tax system and when that is in dispute, it brings it into disrepute. The commission gave us a very graphic description of how it functioned when it was set up first, making reference to computers going on fire and so on. It was quite a shocking session. Did that make a difference? If something is going to be problematic because of the length of time spent adjudicating on it, are we at a point such that we can see a difference in terms of the intervention being made by the commission?
