The Administrative Court dismissed the city's appeal regarding the denial of VAT deduction for event expenses. The court found that the city had no right to reimbursement for these representative expenses, which precluded any VAT deduction under the relevant tax provisions. Consequently, the court upheld the lower court's decision that the expenses were not deductible.

tilaisuuksia muun muassa kuntalaisille, kaupungin yhteistyökumppaneille,
