IRC – NCDC GST SLICING AND CONTEMPT OF COURT
By Internal Revenue Commission PNG
I have written to NCD Governor detailing the grounds upon which I based my decision, and I stand by that decision.
It is within NCDC’s right to go to Court and seek the Courts’ determination on this issue and we will explain our side of the story.
Whether my decision is ethical, or legally and morally right, or contemptuous, are questions that the Court as the independent arbiter, can determine.
Since this issue is politically sensitive, I have declined to engage in a public debate hence will not respond nor engage paid spin doctors to make it look right.
Myself and IRC have no parochial interest except to give adequate regard to the social purpose of the law we are compelled to administer.
