May 21.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 1691

the Administrator shall surcharge with the amount of such public
moneys the person who appears to him to be in default or responsible,
notifying that person in writing of the surcharge and of the time
within which it must be satisfied, and shall also notify the Minister
of External Affairs thereof.
35. The Administrator may at any time revoke any surcharge
made by him in error.
36. Any person so surcharged may, within two months after the
receipt of the notice thereof, appeal to the Minister of External
Affairs, who, after making or causing to be made such investigation
as he thinks equitable, may determine the matter by an order either
confirming the surcharge or directing the relief of the appellant there-
from either wholly or in part. Such appeal shall be made by deliver-
ing a written notice thereof to the Administrator.
37. The amount of any such surcharge shall, after the expiry of
the time for appeal therefrom, or in case of an appeal, then after the
determination of that appeal, and to the extent to which the sur-
charge is confirmed, constitute a debt due to the Crown by the person
surcharged, and may be recovered by action accordingly, or deducted
from the salary or other moneys payable to the person surcharged
from the Samoan Treasury in such manner as the Administrator
may direct.
38. Nothing in the foregoing regulations as to surcharge shall
preclude any other method of recovering from any person the amount
of any loss which he may have caused to the Samoan Treasury by any
fraud, negligence, mistake, or breach of official duty.
39. All regulations in force under the Post and Telegraph Act,
1908, or the Customs Act, 1913, or any other Act in force in
Samoa shall, so far as such regulations relate to the collection, receipt,
expenditure, control, or audit of public moneys, be read subject to
the provisions of these regulations.
