Questão jurídica principal
Whether the Federal Tax Administration could issue the final assistance decision after earlier refusals.
Decisão extraída
The prior correspondence was not a final decision; only the 6 June 2005 decision was subject to appeal, so no unlawful reconsideration had to be examined.
Fundamentação extraída
The earlier letters were exchanges with the foreign authority and did not determine rights or obligations vis-à-vis the appellant. The final decision required by the ordinance was the first appealable decision on transmission.
