dc.description.abstractThe author based the objectives for this research against the background of the findings of the Commission on Taxation in relation to Irish customs law: Notwithstanding the findings of the Irish Commission on Taxation [to the effect that they found Customs law and administration to be “impenetrable” owing to its antiquity], the author takes the contrary view that Customs law, generally, has a perceptible pattern which can be traced and explained in a simple and straightforward manner in order to yield up its raison d’être. His particular premise is that identifiable and immutable principles of taxation and administration are at the heart of Customs procedures and practices; that these principles of taxation and Customs control determine the broad framework of Customs legislation generally; and that this has been the position from time immemorial, right up to the present day. To validate this premise he has identified and distilled these formulating principles as they evolved over the centuries in Irish (and English) law. Having done so he went on to house them within the framework of Adam Smith’s so-called canons of taxation in order to make them more meaningful in the overall scheme of taxation – it is worth noting that Smith was once a Commissioner of Customs in Scotland. At the same time the author demonstrated that these principles are enshrined in EU customs law and have played an equally influential role in the formulation of the original, overarching, Kyoto Convention on the Simplification and Harmonisation of Customs Procedures and its successor, the revised Kyoto Convention. The then Customs Co-operation Council (now the World Customs Organisation) appears to have independently reached the same broad conclusion in the course of its Comparative Studies of Customs Procedures in 1957.en
