1043. Paid vouchers are to be treated by Sub-Postmasters as a remittance to their Chief Postmasters of the amount which they represent, and are to be entered by Chief Postmasters on the special form of statement provided.
1044. Official Assignee Payments.—The Post Office acts as the medium for making payments due to the creditors of bankrupt estates passing through the hands of Official Assignees. Payments are only to be made by direction of the Accountant, General Post Office. This will chiefly take the form of the “Payment authorised” stamp.
1045. Receipts are to be taken on the form supplied by the Official Assignee, on which the direction to pay will appear. These receipts are not liable to stamp duty. Sub-Postmasters will send in the paid vouchers as remittances to their chief office.
1046. Chief Postmasters will enter the payments on Form Acct. 190 as “Statement of Payments for Official Assignee.”
1047. Claimants will be advised by the Official Assignee when and where to apply for payment. No payment should be made unless the advice from the Official Assignee is produced by the claimant.
1048. All vouchers which have been on hand unpaid for three clear months, not including the month of receipt, are to be returned as lapsed, with a covering memorandum to the Accountant, General Post Office.
1049. Generally, the instructions relative to miscellaneous payments out of Post Office cash will be found applicable, and should be observed.
1050. Purchase of New Zealand Government Debentures.—The Post and Telegraph Department may, when it has funds available for investment, purchase New Zealand Government debentures, and interest thereon will be allowed to the holder up to the date of purchase. Persons desirous of selling such debentures should be instructed to make formal application for their purchase to the Controller, General Post Office, giving full particulars of the amount required to be purchased, the numbers and denominations of the debentures, and the title of the Act under which they were issued. Debentures may not under any circumstances be purchased without specific authority.
IMPERIAL PENSIONS PAID.
1051. All Imperial pensions outside Wellington are paid through the Post Office. Generally, the rules governing Miscellaneous Payments will apply, but the following special instructions must be carefully observed.
