Q11:

If Governor were forced to pay tax, would he be compensated by a pay rise to restore his net

income?

A11:

Q12:

Hypothetical question.

All that can say is that

his level of remuneration takes into account the

fact that he is exempt from tax.

Is Governor exempt from other kinds of tax?

A12: No.

Exemption only applies to his salary and

related allowances?

Q13:

Will the Government review the position?

A13: Once the Memorandum on the Queen's tax position has

been published, the Governor has asked that it be

examined to see whether it has any direct relevance to his own contractual position.
