I am advised by Revenue that the persons in question failed to discharge a Capital Gains Tax liability in respect of the 2011 tax year. The overall liability included a surcharge amount as a consequence of the late filing of the Return.
On foot of contact by Revenue, the persons paid the tax element of the overall liability, over the early months of 2013 but did not pay the surcharge amount (€15,469) or the interest amount chargeable. The persons did submit an inability to pay claim in respect of the surcharge and interest elements of the liability but this was not accepted by Revenue.
The persons should now contact Mr Jim Deery of the Collector-General's office at telephone 061 488753 to bring the matter to a conclusion.
