Classification of exported services between Group 84 and Group 86 was held to be a question of interpretation; the thin distinction in descriptions and a harmonious reading of invoices supported an interpretative dispute.

On that basis penal liability under the customs penalty provision was not warranted and the imposed penalties on the company and its director were set aside, with consequential relief available.
