Commentary on Sections Part 5 - Supplementary Provision Penalties relating to non-disposal areas Section 69 – Assessment of penalties under section 68
140.This section enables an assessment of a penalty under section 68 to be combined with an assessment to tax. For example, if the landfill site operator fails to comply with the terms of a notice designating a non-disposal area, particularly where the failure relates to the placement of material, WRA may determine that a taxable disposal has taken place and issue an assessment to tax under TCMA at the same time that it assesses a penalty under section 68 in respect of that same failure.
