Income tax – Loss relief. The Revenue and Customs Commissioners rejected the taxpayers' claims to set off trading losses in respect of certain partnerships so as to reduce their payments in respect of tax due, as the partnerships had entered into a settlement agreement. The taxpayers sought judicial review.
