    Quote
    Amounts written off which would be attributable to incorrectly addressed letters are included in the Trust Statement overall figures for write-off of income tax where the taxpayer is untraceable for all sorts of reasons. Over the last two years the sums written off because we could not trace a customer represented some 0.03 per tax of income tax receipts.
