Conde Nast Publications Ltd v Customs and Excise: CA 11 Jul 2006

The court was asked as to the time available to a taxpayer to make a claim for repayment of under-deducted input tax under regulation 29.
Held: Though it might itself feel some discomfort at an earlier judgment interpreting a judgment of the European Court, the earlier decision was binding and must be followed. It would be wrong to allow an appeal when the corrrect procedure was for the European Court to be allowed to revisit its own decision. A reference back to the European court was ordered.
