Reviews

“As Tax Director at the Institute of Chartered Accountants of New Zealand I continue to see cases of disputes over the application of the tax disputes rules. This is unfortunate, as these rules should be clear and coherent for both taxpayers and the IRD. The ability for taxpayers to dispute tax positions and outcomes with the Commissioner is central to the good workings of a tax system.

Mark Keating's work in this area shines a light into some of the darker recesses of the disputes rules that are not readily apparent to those who do not specialise in this area. The material in this book goes further than a general guide on this important topic. Rather, it is the culmination of many years' work and study of the tax dispute rules, and should be a reference for anyone advising on tax disputes, both within the IRD and on behalf of taxpayers.”
