Reassessment based on search-related information may be initiated under reassessment provisions where the Assessing Officer also relies on independent enquiries into transactions with an alleged entry provider, rather than on search material alone. Approval for the reassessment notice was treated as procedurally valid and non-mechanical, and the challenge to reassessment failed.
