Sir
I have the honour to refer to Paragraph (4) of Article 18 of the Agreement between the Government of the Republic of Singapore and the Government of Australia for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income, signed at Canberra on 11 February 1969.[1]
In this connection I have the honour to propose that the provisions of Paragraph (3) of Article 18 of the Agreement shall apply in relation to income derived in any year of income up to and including the year of income that ended on 30 June 1987.
In the event of this proposal being acceptable to the Government of Australia this Note, together with your Note accepting the proposal, shall constitute an Agreement between the two Governments for the purposes of Paragraph (4) of Article 18 of the Agreement, which shall enter into force on the date of your reply.
I avail myself of this opportunity, Sir, to renew to you the assurances of my highest consideration.
