In trying to limit the rum trade Bligh forbade bartering and introduced regulations securing government control of ships in port. H. V. Evatt concludes in his history of the Rebellion that Bligh "was authorised to prevent free importation, to preserve the trade under his entire control, to enforce all penalties against illegal import, and to establish regulations at his discretion for the sale of spirits".
