The claimant had been late in making class 2 national Insurance contributions over many years. The revenue appealed an order that it should have allowed the late paid contributions to count toward his pension entitlements.
Held: The late payments may have been because of ignorance or lack of care or diligence, but that was not sufficiently good case to allow the revenue a discretion.
