Rejection of an application for a withholding tax certificate resulted in the High Court holding that the Competent Authority acted arbitrarily by issuing a certificate at 15% despite existing binding precedent favouring nil withholding; the authority cannot depart from the court's settled view unless factual differences or new information justify a contrary conclusion.
