The lease of the premises was for sale, and as in the event of the purchaser desiring to obtain possession for his own use it would have been difficult to obtain other accommodation for the I.R. Department equally satisfactory, it was deemed advisable to purchase it.

Accommodation for the I. R. Department has been provided in the new Post Office in course of erection. This expenditure represents the proportion of the total cost for the year applicable to the Inland Revenue Office: separate provision is made in the Estimates for 1906-7.
