Grenville’s tax plan debated in parliaments and colonies

A printed speech from New York reports Mr Grenville proposed a colonial stamp duty to raise revenue for debt and war costs. The article quotes his claim that colonies should raise part of the expense, with agents and assemblies asked to consider alternate taxes. It notes opposition to self taxation and records discussions with Montagu and others about delaying the measure until the next session.

Parliament and colonial tax dispute cited in correspondence

The text discusses suspending Stamp Duty, threats of taxation by Parliament if colonies refuse self tax, and efforts to repeal the sugar act. Israel Mauduit notes agents’ remonstrance and an offer to raise funds themselves. A Georgia agent printed a account agreeing with the matter, urging readers to consult A Review of the Controversy with Great Britain and her Colonies. Lord Temple’s House of Lords testimony about Grenville’s plan to have colonies tax themselves is noted.
