Offshore accounts and a ‘tax window’

Sir, – It baffles me as to why those with offshore income are being offered a six-month "window" to get their affairs in order before a crackdown by the Revenue ("Offshore account holders get six months to pay up", October 21st).

Surely it makes sense to crackdown immediately and recover the money.

Would I get a six-month “window” on my PAYE tax? I doubt it. – Yours, etc,
