I have been advised by the Revenue Commissioners that, having offered to mitigate the penalties and interest due, to an interest-only amount, they are not prepared to offer any further mitigation until they have reviewed all correspondence between the purchasers and the Law Society in this matter. This includes specific details of the purchasers' claim for compensation from the Law Society.

The Revenue Commissioners will consider further mitigation on the basis of this review and will be informed by their obligation to treat all taxpayers in a fair and consistent manner. Evidence in support of the claim was requested from the persons concerned on 25th February 2010.
