Japanese apologise to Sun: Now Inland Revenue apologises to The Independent

The Inland Revenue yesterday issued the first apology over its new system of tax self-assessment, admitting to The Independent that it was still sending out tax bills with just a week to go before deadline.

It said that anyone who received a tax bill after the 31 January deadline and was therefore issued with a fine - amounting to 5 per cent of their bill - could appeal. Page 22
