reserved until the final closing of the accounts of the period.
Herewith, I enclose a statement shewing;—
- The actual receipts by each Province on account of surplus Ordinary Revenue for the year ended 30th June, 1857.
- The amount of the Dividend now carried to the credit of each Province on the same account.
- The excess of such Dividend over the actual receipts by each Province on the same account.
Directions will immediately be given for payment to the Treasurers of the Provinces of Auckland and Wellington of the amounts due to those Provinces in respect of such excess.
In the case of the other Provinces, as it is probable they will all appear debtors to the Colony, in respect to the period antecedent to 30th June, 1856, no such payment will at be made.
I have, &c.,
C. W. RICHMOND.
His Honor the Superintendent,
New Plymouth.
