Abstract
This paper extends the literature on tax amnesties by consid-ering two special grace programmes. The first is an offer by the government not to investigate taxpayers' accounts, the second not to prosecute indicted evaders. I analyse the impact of both measures on the taxpayers' optimal behaviour and the government's net revenue, and derive the conditions under which it would be desir-able to implement them on a permanent basis.
