Penalty under Customs law could not be sustained against a customs broker where the only allegation was breach of the Customs Brokers Licensing Regulations. The Tribunal noted that earlier licence-suspension proceedings had recorded no mens rea, knowledge, connivance or negligence, and the suspension was revoked.
