Fed: Accountants could sue ATO over computer problems

Accountants have flagged they may sue the Australian Tax Office .. over a computer
glitch holding up the processing of refunds.

The ATO's new computer system swung into action in January .. but problems with it
have led to long delays processing about one million tax assessments.

ADRIAN RAFTERY from accountancy referral service accountantsRus says the glitch has
cost tax agents time and money.

Earlier this week independent senator NICK XENOPHON called for an independent inquiry
into the ATO's computer system problems.
