Appeals against Regulation 13 determinations

Where you are to represent HMRC at a Tribunal hearing, informal assistance and advice may be obtained from the Tax Administration Advice Unit in connection with the hearing, or where there is a dispute between a contractor and a subcontractor over whether a deduction is due and a Regulation 13 determination has been raised. (This content has been withheld because of exemptions in the Freedom of Information Act 2000)

Where an appeal against a Regulation 13 determination is heard by the Tribunal, the determination will stand unless the contractor can show that one of the following applies:

• the contractor has been overcharged, for example, on an estimated determination
• no payments subject to deductions under the Scheme were made
• the payments were made to a subcontractor who was registered for gross payment prior to payment being made.
