townshend also faced the problem of what to do about the new york provincial assembly, which had refused to comply with the 1765 quartering act because its members saw the act's financial provisions as levying an unconstitutional tax. the new york restraining act, which according to historian robert chaffin was "officially a part of the townshend acts", suspended the power of the assembly until it complied with the quartering act. the restraining act never went into effect because, by the time it was passed, the new york assembly had already appropriated money to cover the costs of the quartering act. the assembly avoided conceding the right of parliament to tax the colonies by making no reference to the quartering act when appropriating this money; they also passed a resolution stating that parliament could not constitutionally suspend an elected legislature.
