TREASURY REGULATIONS.
-
The Law Trust Cash-book shall be made up at the close of business on each Saturday, or at such longer intervals not exceeding one month as the Treasury may direct, and the balance, if any, carried forward to the succeeding period. The balance must be stated so as to show the amount in the bank, the amount of unpresented cheques, and the moneys received after bank hours.
-
Every officer shall, by the first mail leaving after each accounting period, prepare and post to the Receiver-General a correct copy of so much of his Law Trust Cash-book as he has not previously sent, and shall transmit therewith a certificate by the bank of the balance at credit of his account, a declaration in the form set forth in the Tenth Schedule hereto, the vouchers for the receipts and disbursements of the period, and a list of the unpresented cheques. If there have been no transactions during the period a “Nil” return should be forwarded.
-
The Receiver-General may at any time require that any sum of money which has been paid into a Law Trust Account shall be paid into the Receiver-General’s Deposit Account, and the Receiver shall, when so directed, pay the amount to the bank for credit of the Receiver-General’s Deposit Account at Wellington, and shall obtain from the bank a receipt in the form in the Seventh Schedule hereto, which he shall forthwith forward to the Receiver-General, together with a memorandum of advice of the lodgment.
-
Whenever any sum of money in the Receiver-General’s Deposit Account is required for payment to the person entitled thereto, the Receiver shall apply, by telegraph if necessary, to the Receiver-General, who will thereupon repay the amount so required to credit of the Receiver’s Law Trust Account.
Receiver-General’s Deposit Account.
- The Receiver-General shall forward to the Audit Office day by day all copies of Receivers’ Deposit Cash-books received by him, together with the vouchers in support thereof.
III. EXPENDITURE.
GENERAL.
-
All claims on the Government must be stated on an “abstract form” in one of the forms in the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Schedules, or such other form as the Treasury may direct for special cases, and, after being certified by the proper officer, must be sent by him forthwith to the head of the Department on account of which the expenditure is incurred.
-
Every such abstract must be stamped with the approval stamp of the Department, and signed by the head of the Department or other officer authorized by the Minister for the purpose, who shall at the same time fill in, in the proper place in the abstract, the vote and item, or other account authorized by Parliament, against which the same is to be charged. The abstract shall without delay be sent to the Treasury for payment or credit, as the case may be; except such claims as come under Regulation seventy, which are to be sent to the Audit Office first, and when audited shall forthwith be forwarded on to the Treasury for payment or credit as above.
