If the contractor claims that no deduction, or too little deduction, was made and that the failure arose from an 'error made in good faith' or a 'genuine belief' that the payment was not within the scope of the Scheme, follow the guidance in PA6.300 and existing procedures.

Where a Regulation 9(3) direction is made, you should inform

• the CIS Unit,
• the subcontractor's processing office, and
• the contractor's processing office.
