ROBERT J. COLLINS,
Assistant Secretary and Accountant to the Treasury.
JAMES B. HEYWOOD,
Secretary to the Treasury.
The foregoing accounts have been examined and found correct, subject to the following remarks :—
- The Customs, Railways, and Territorial Revenue receipts are not now examined by the Audit Office.
- The Audit Office is unable satisfactorily to verify the receipts of gold revenue, through the failure of the Mines Department to comply with a requisition for a certified statement of the amounts collectible as such revenue.
- The expenditure on telephone exchanges includes expenditure on telephone exchange connections supplied free of charge to hospitals, homes, orphanages, benevolent institutions, fire brigades, &c.
- In the statement of the receipts and expenditure of the Conversion Account the amount entered as balance in the hands of Stock Agents includes payments which were made in May, 1904, to officers of the Agent-General’s Department for services rendered by them to such Agents, but of which a sum of £300 was not authorised by the Consolidated Stock Act.
- The “Advances in the hands of Officers of the Government” includes payments to the amount of £4,545 12s. 8d., though the accounts of the same were received at the Treasury before the close of the year.
J. K. WARBURTON,
Controller and Auditor-General.
The following remarks are necessary in reply :—
- Is in accordance with law.
- Certified statements are not by law required.
- Correct. No remark necessary.
- The sum of £300, as mentioned, will be placed upon the estimates of the current year. It has been the custom to make these payments for many years.
