FINANCIAL ADMINISTRATION ACT

Dane Pocrnic Remission Order

P.C. 2005-624 April 19, 2005

Her Excellency the Governor General in Council, considering that the collection of the tax is unjust, on the recommendation of the Minister of National Revenue, pursuant to subsection 23(2) (see footnote a) of the Financial Administration Act, hereby remits tax under Part I.2 of the Income Tax Act in the amount of $3,161 for the 1999 taxation year, and all relevant interest thereon, paid or payable by Dane Pocrnic.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order.)

This Order remits a portion of income tax and all relevant interest paid or payable thereon by Dane Pocrnic in respect of the 1999 taxation year.

In 1999, Mr. Pocrnic received a taxable lump sum payment from a government agency, a portion of which he was entitled to receive in the years from 1992 to 1998. As a result of the income inclusion in 1999, Mr. Pocrnic was required to repay a significant portion of his Old Age Security benefits for that year. The amount remitted represents the additional tax liability incurred by Mr. Pocrnic as a result of the lengthy delay by the government agency in paying him the amounts to which he was entitled in the relevant years.
