6.5 TAX CRIME UNITS Expansion of tax crime units is proceeding according to plan. There were a total of 179 investigators at the end of 2003, as opposed to 157 a year earlier. The number of pretrial investigations completed rose by approximately 40% in 2003 to almost 1,400. Since tax crime units are still in the expansion stage, enhanced performance is to be expected. Nevertheless, the improvement has been better than anticipated. Some 80% of the cases completed in 2003 originated as crime reports from the tax authorities. Receivers in bankruptcy reported the second largest number of offences.

7. People Convicted and the Penalties The official statistics on people convicted cover the principal offence only. As a result, they don’t reflect all offences. The data, which is taken from BRÅ’s official figures, includes only offences stipulated in the Tax Penal Act and Part 11 of the Penal Code.
