Surcharge appeals

We cannot automatically capture the data on surcharge appeals received. This means that you should

  • count appeals and clearance types manually and
  • record them on the spreadsheet
  • explain the reason for the appeal in the notes column.

The column headed ‘Acceptable - other’ is to be used where, for instance, the employer appeals on the grounds that the surcharge amount is excessive in light of the amounts paid late.
