Mr. Chairman, I notice the Minister may extend the time for filing a return. What set of circumstances were foreseen that this might be something necessary to have in the act?

Mr. Chairman, that would be in the case that there was an emergency or something unforeseen had happened. It just gives the Minister of Finance the option of extending the time for filing. As I say, it is not fair to be used every day, it is just there in case it has to be used in the event of an emergency or something unforseen. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
