Anyone who has been the subject of an inspection procedure knows that the Tax Administration is guilty of a concealment that, starting with the criteria set for the remuneration of inspectors, ends up extending to all phases of the procedure and even to the very entrance to the facilities of the tax agency, whose access control and reception of the citizen who pays for them is the closest thing to entering the former General Directorate of Security.
Often, this concealment benefits from the good faith of citizens who, trusting that the civil servant exercises a public function and is subject to the rule of law and his obligation to serve the general interest, do not publicize the regularizations suffered, indeed, in some cases they conceal them out of shame or a mistaken feeling of having defrauded the Public Treasury.
Anyone who has recently been the subject of an inspection knows that this feeling is far removed from reality, since the inspectors receive part of their salary as variable remuneration that depends on the amount of the assessments they issue and the penalties they impose, subject to equally secret “invoicing” objectives, which can only condition (and to what extent it does) their actions towards the taxpayers. The intricacies of the tax rules and the different interpretations they admit, do the rest.
Until a government comes along to put an end to this pernicious influence (and it is doubtful that this will happen), we, the people administered, have no choice but to publicize those administrative acts contrary to the law and their actors with names and surnames. The pooling of administrative acts contrary to the legal system can help to identify and punish those who, not in isolation, but frequently, or even systematically, violate the law for particular purposes, perverting their own status as civil servants, whose actions are especially subject to scrupulous compliance with the law.
For this reason, we invite you to send us the resolutions issued by the tax agency bodies that have constituted a manifest violation of the legal system declared by the economic-administrative courts or by the Courts of Justice, especially those of particular gravity or that have involved a significant deviation from the legal system in the opinion of the body that has annulled them.
You can send them to us using the following contact form. Once we receive your case, we will ask you for the documentation that proves the existence of the annulled administrative act, previous declaration of confidentiality on our part.
