R. B. LUSK,
Provincial Accountant.

I hereby certify that I have examined the Accounts of the Provincial Treasurer of the Province of Auckland for the quarter ended 31st December, 1875, and compared them with the vouchers, and find the computations correct; that the Revenues and Receipts brought on charge and required by law to be paid into the Provincial Account were so paid; that all issues of public moneys have been made on Warrants of the Superintendent duly certified by me; that all moneys issued in payment of Services rendered were legally available according to the terms of the Provincial Audit Act, 1866; that the Expenditure shown in the said Accounts has been properly classified, and that no part thereof has been paid without the authority of the law.

B. MACLEAN,
Provincial Auditor.

VUW Te Waharoa — Auckland Provincial Gazette 1876, No 3

After Parliament moved to Wellington in 1865, the Auckland Provincial Council sat in General Assembly House (depicted).

It was nicknamed the 'Shedifice' as it was large and drafty, with a leaking roof. First premier Henry Sewell described it as 'a great wooden barnshaped affair, which might serve for a Hospital, a Jail, or a Barrack'.
