The fact mentioned in the 3rd paragraph of Mr Chatham's letter that he could have evaded payment of Income Tax by breaking the Colonial regulations in having his pay remitted to him otherwise than through the Crown Agents does not appear to me relevant to the question whether under the Imperial Acts he is liable to pay Income Tax now.

5. The fact that this rule was not followed on previous occasions is no reason why it should be overlooked in this instance.
