J. C. MOGINIE, Officer in Charge of the Accounts, Provincial District Treasury.

I hereby certify that I have examined the accounts of the Treasurer of the Provincial District of Auckland for the Quarter ended 31st December, 1876, 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 District Account, were so paid; that all issues of public moneys have been made on warrants of the proper officer, 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 expended without authority of law.

B. MACLEAN, Provincial Auditor.
