Penal liability of a Customs Broker for abetment of attempted Red Sanders export requires evidence of a positive act, prior knowledge, active collusion, or assistance; failure alone to verify an IEC holder does not establish abetment.

The penalty was set aside, and the Revenue's attempt to impose an additional penalty was rejected.
