    MANCHESTER TRIBUNAL CENTRE Reference No: MAN/05/0249
    JAGUAR COURIERS LIMITED Appellant
    and
    HER MAJESTY'S REVENUE AND CUSTOMS Respondents
    Tribunal Chairman: Michael Tildesley OBE
    Sitting in public in Birmingham on the 6 September 2005
    DIRECTION
    under Rule 30(8)
    This appeal against a decision of the Respondents with respect to a surcharge assessment dated the 17 September 2004 in the sum of £3,449.58 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 upon hearing Jackie Roe and David Cheeseman for the Appellant and Bernard Haley of the Acting Solicitor for HM Revenue and Customs for the Respondents
    And this tribunal having heard this appeal and having announced its decision
    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 not have a reasonable excuse for the default which resulted in the Respondents making the assessment under appeal
    And this tribunal directs that this appeal is dismissed and that there is to be no direction as to costs
    Mr Hayley, after hearing the evidence withdrew the default surcharge of £2,595.89 for the period ending 31 October 2003. The consequence of Mr Hayley's decision was that the default surcharge which was under appeal was reduced to £2,299.72 which means that the Appellant will receive a small credit in respect of the default surcharge.
