    This appeal against a decision of the Respondents with respect to 8 surcharge assessments for the periods from 1 October 2003 to 31 August 2004 (scheduled as 10 - 17) in the sum of £40,277.76 and being a reasonable excuse appeal as defined by rule 2 of the Value Added Tax Tribunals Rules 1986 as amended coming on for hearing this day

    And the Appellant and the Respondents by their said representatives stating pursuant to the rule 30(8) of the said Rules as amended that they do not require the said decision to be recorded in a written document in accordance with rule 30(1) of the said Rules

    This tribunal finds that the Appellant does have a reasonable excuse for the default which resulted in the Respondents making the assessments under appeal in respect of the periods from 1 April 2004 to 30 June 2004 (scheduled as 13 – 15) but does not have a reasonable excuse in respect of the other periods under appeal (scheduled as 10, 11, 12, 16 and 17)

    And this tribunal directs that this appeal is allowed in part (for the periods 1 April 2004 to 30 June 2004) but dismissed in respect of all other periods under review and that there is to be no direction as to costs
