(2)Each relevant partner shall be liable to a penalty which shall be £100.
(3)If, on an application made to them by an officer of the Board, the General or Special Commissioners so direct, each relevant partner shall be liable, for each day on which the failure continues after the day on which the representative partner is notified of the direction (but excluding any day for which a penalty under this subsection has already been imposed), to a further penalty or penalties not exceeding £60.
(4)If—
(a)the failure by the representative partner to comply with the notice continues after the end of the period of six months beginning with the filing date, and
(b)no application is made under subsection (3) above before the end of that period,

(5)No penalty shall be imposed under subsection (3) above in respect of a failure at any time after the failure has been remedied.
