RESOLUTE LAWYERS
We have successfully defended many Clients in relation to recovery claims by the Australian Taxation
Office, under the Director Penalty Notice Laws, and against other Government Agencies in relation to
building contractual agreements.
Disputes with the Australian Taxation Office and other Government Agencies may be difficult and
costly. Accessing relevant documents or information relied upon by the Decision - Maker can be
difficult than ordinarily would be the case.
Your rights to access information held by the ATO and other Agencies depends upon whether you
have any legal rights or legal rights under the Freedom of Information Act 1982.
From past experience, the ATO and other Agencies will refuse to provide access to documents that
are exempted documents. Exempt documents may include documents relating to secrecy provisions,
national security and defence, legal professional privilege documents, business affair documents,
confidential documents, and possibly information that if disclosed would not be favourable to the
Agency.
