Employee grievances

These contingent liabilities represent amounts that may be claimed by employees as a result of alleged grievances against IR.

Legal proceedings and disputes–taxpayer

The actual revenue (tax) under dispute is recognised as a non-departmental contingency (refer to the Schedule of Non-departmental Contingent Assets and Contingent Liabilities).
