What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant failed to provide requested information within 56 days and did not respond to reminder notices. The tribunal found no reasonable excuse for non-compliance and noted the appellant was able to supply the information promptly after receiving the penalty notice, indicating the information was within their possession and control. The appeals were therefore dismissed.
