Failure to do this or fraudulent declaraiton subjects ths offender to a fine equal to half the amount not declared and a tax equal to triple the aura of which the treasury has been deprived for each year anterior to the discovery of the fraud. But, realising the difficulty of securing a correct voluntary return the bill also adopts another method of clandestine operations. preventing French banks with branches abroad, or foreign banks with branches in France, are bound under the penalty of $20 a day for delay after official investigation to allow the treasury agents to inspect a complete, list, brought up to date every six months, of the accounts of their clients, any omission subjecting the firm to a fine of $ino to $2un.
