Mr. Brian Bryson Acting Director Current Amendments & Regulations Division Revenue Canada, Taxation Room 1043, MacDonald Building 123 Slater Street Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0L8
This is in reply to your letter of August 9, 1989 with respect to a remission request for
19(1)
I confirm that I would be prepared to support Revenue Canada's sponsoring of this remission order on the basis of financial hardship. In this regard, I can also confirm that we are not proposing to recommend a change in the law to permit deductions of the nature claimed by 19(1).
General Director Tax Policy & Legislation Branch
