NOTE—With the introduction of new accounting machinery into the Treasury revised procedures have been adopted which result in some loss of comparability of quarterly figures with previous years.

E. L. GREENSMITH,
Secretary to the Treasury.
9 October 1961.

N. R. DAVIS,
Finance Officer, Treasury.
9 October 1961.

The Audit Office having made such examination as was considered necessary certifies that in its opinion these accounts are correct. The revised procedures referred to in the footnote above have resulted in large unallocated balances in Suspense Account and “Imprests”.

A. D. BURNS,
Controller and Auditor-General.
20 October 1961.

NOTE—This certificate is given subject to the final audit of many vouchers which cannot be completely audited before the date at which these accounts are required by the Public Revenues Act 1953 to be certified.
