A company may appeal against the determination of a penalty. The provisions of the TMA relating to appeals apply to determinations as they do to assessments, except that the tribunal have specific powers of variation in place of TMA70/S50 (6) to (8).

In relation to penalties such as those under FA98/SCH18/PARA17 and 18 that are required to be of a particular amount the tribunal may:

  • set the determination aside if it appears to them that the company has incurred no penalty,

  • confirm the determination if the amount determined appears to them to be correct,

  • increase or reduce the amount determined to the correct amount if it appears to them to be incorrect.
