Bus/Financial - Finance (general) / Corporate Annual Report
Italian term or phrase: contestazioni elevate
Could contestazioni be translated as violations, in this case?

La verifica generale da parte della Guardia di Finanza iniziata nel marzo del 2006 si è conclusa nel dicembre 2006 con la notifica di un verbale di constatazione.
La verifica ha riguardato l’applicazione delle norme tributarie in materia di imposte dirette ed indirette ed altre, relativamente agli esercizi 2004 e 2005.
La Società ha già sottoposto il verbale in questione all’esame di professionisti esterni di chiara fama per valutare le ***contestazioni elevate***, anche sotto il profilo dei riflessi di bilancio.

stated violations or infractions/charges made
Explanation:
this term refers to the "list of charges" (if you will) made by the Guardia di Finanza in the verbale di constatazione....similar to the context below:

"...specifiche nel caso di contestazioni elevate da parte degli organi di controllo nei confronti di produttori..."

it then goes on to say that these charges are being reviewed from a legal point of view and in relation to their impact on the financials...so the company has not stated its position and 'contestazioni' refers to the original charges rather than the company's rebuttal.

matters/violations/infringements contested


Explanation:
elevate here is in the sense of "raising a point".
I would leave it at a generic "matters" in the context, since it could contain petty infringements or even serious fraud.
