Didn't find your answer?

Looks correct to me.

This shows it's not easy for HMRC to prove deliberate misconduct where there is reliance on a tax advisor with a supporting counsel opinion (even for an aggressive looking tax avoidance scheme). Alternatively, it shows some FTT judges are not too good at explaining their reasoning (properly per the relevant law) in their judgments.
