From the case presented, it is true to say that since Mr. Brimble is not an employee of Development Co Ltd, he could not be assessable on the receipt.

Assessment is done on workers of a company or firm that are employed and are on the business payroll. Based on the provided case, Mr. Brimble is a minister serving the government but not a worker of the Co. Ltd despite introducing the development project within the firm. Therefore, the transfer of the unit to Mr. Brimble cannot be regarded as an assessable capital receipt. However, the development Co Ltd and the unit transfer would have been assessable even if it was cash. Only workers to a specific company are assessable on the receipt
