Before WW2, it was the duty of both federal and state governments to collect income tax. However, in times of struggle, in an attempt to increase the efficiency of the government changes were made to this system of tax collection. The intent of the law was 'to get rid of state income tax and of state income tax departments (chief justice latham). The Uniform tax act was comprised of 4 sections, which aimed to firstly, eliminate the need for state income tax by setting a high overall rate. Although the state was still technically allowed to implement its own seperate income tax, it was not a good idea as it meant very high income tax rates and loss of the grants provided by the federal parliament. Second, it attempted to provide the state with an incentive, in order to not make any changes to the new income tax rate. This was done by giving the states money in the form of grants almost equal to the amount of money which would have been lost otherwise. Thirdly, a law was implemented to ensure that if any states were to refuse the new income tax laws put in place they would be over ruled by the commonwealth. The fourth and final law was put in place to guarantee the governments collection of commonwealth income tax. The attempted implementation of the Uniform Tax Case was contested by four states (WA, VIC, SA and QLD). However, section 51 of the constitution gives federal parliament
