The foregoing accounts have been examined and found correct, subject to the following remarks:—
(1.) The Customs, Railways, and Territorial Revenue receipts are not now examined by the Audit Office.
(2.) 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.
(3.) The balance entered as “Advances in the hands of Officers of the Government” includes an amount of imprest-moneys represented by payments which the Governor’s Salary and Allowances Act operated to prohibit.

J. K. WARBURTON,
Controller and Auditor-General.

With reference to remark No. 3, I need only state that provision for the expenditure was duly made by appropriation of Parliament.

R. J. SEDDON,
Colonial Treasurer.
