Defalcations in connection with public moneys have been discovered and dealt with as under:— Land Revenue Acoount, Christchurch: As a result of an examination of this account by an Inspector of the Audit Department it was ascertained that amounts totalling £12,670 had been misappropriated by a clerk in the office (A. Costello). The default in<;' officer was brought to trial, convicted, and sentenced to three years' imprison ment. In regard to the aforementioned defalcations, I must express my extreme regret that such a paragraph as the final one on page I of the Public Service Commissioner's Report has been laid upon the table of the House, for the reason that it is so constructed as to present a relationship of cause ami effect which is inconsistent with the facts of the ease, and is therefore unfair to the officers who comprised the Con* ference therein referred to. So far as these defalcations are concerned there is no conclusive evidence as to when they commenced, but it certainly was not as a result of the Conference of lilll that "facilities were offered to a dishonest officer" in the sense implied by the Public Service Commissioner's Report, the real fact being that such essential " facilities" were created by the systematic lack of supervision mi the part of the supervising officers, who totally disregarded the requirement of the Lands Department that a regular internal cheek of the accounts should be applied.

Native Land Court, South Island: An examination of these accounts by an Audit Inspector disclosed defalcations by the Registrar of the Court (E, A. Welch) to the amount of £354 7s. 2d. The officer responsible was proceeded against, convicted, and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. State Coal Depot, Christohurch: Shortage of cash and irregularities. Three officers concerned and, after inquiry, dismissed the Service. Post and Telegraph Department : Deficiency in post-office cash. £78 "is. 7d. Offender sentenced to six months' imprisonment. Defence Department, Dunedin : Misappropriation of funds by two officers, committed for trial at. the Supreme Court, August. L 915. Cue officer was found guilty and sentenced to one year's imprisonment; the other was acquitted. Police Department, Auckland : Shortages of clerk, £122 2s. 4d. Amount made good and officer dismissed. Lands Department, Invercargill: Shortage in respect of the sale of lithos, £3 ss. (id. One officer dismissed, and others suitably dealt with. 5. Surcharges in respect of Public Moneys. —There has been a number of instances in which the Audit Office has discovered overpayments or short collections, but as these were subsequently adjusted it was unnecessary to issue any formal surcharge. Moneys issued in kxckss or Appropriations as a Consequence of the War. Owing to the exceptional conditions arising out of the war it was necessary for the Audit Office to issue moneys in excess of the statutory appropriation for the War Expenses Account and the Unauthorized Expenditure Account. 'I his was done on the undertaking of the Government to introduce validatory legislation and indemnify the Audit. Office in respect of same. This undertaking has been carried out, and an Act to validate the payments has been passed by Parliament. The amount, issued was as follows:— £ s. d. War Expenses Account ... ... ... ... ... 778,084 4 ■'! Unauthorized Expenditure .Account ... ... ... 36,559 I 8 Staff. In consequence of the rapid growth of the work connected with the local authorities and the expansion of business in the Government Departments, 1 found it necessary to recommend the appointment of several new officers. Dillicitlt.ics in filling vacancies and want of experience in appointees, and the loss of a number of officers through the war, caused delay in the examination of many of the accounts. A special staff for the examination and audit of the pay-lists of the Expeditionary Force has been engaged to undertake the work. Audit of Stores. New regulations have been issued under the Public Revenues Act, 1910, placing the duty of auditing all public stores on the Controller and Auditor-General as from the Ist .July List. Since 1878 the audit of stores has been a departmental responsibility. As soon as the necessary staff is provided the work will be taken in hand. Audit ok Local-authority Accounts, 1914-15. The operations of the year which elapsed since the period covered by my last report disclose the benefit that has accrued in practice from various amendments of statutes which were made by Parliament within the last three years at the instance of the Audit office. The amendments referred to have had the effect on the one hand of removing sundry unnecessary and irritating limitations to local-authority operations, and on the other hand have provided clearly-expressed conditions for enforcing observance of the law : with the result that not only has the number of statutory offences been largely reduced, but that Audit has succeeded without Court action and expense in obtaining adjustments of nearly the whole of the statutory irregularities which have been disclosed. This satisfactory condition. I would like to state, has been largely contributed to by the ungrudgingly-given and, as events have proved, sound advice of the Crown Law Officers. In spite, however, of improved conditions, there were during the year no less than seventyone local authorities (and in regard to some of these on more than one matter) which required and received special treatment on the part of the Audit Office, the outcome of which is shown in the tabulated statement given below. This statement does not include adjustments of illegal overdrafts, of which there were several. The cases of defalcations discovered by Audit Inspectors in local-authority accounts numbered eight, and in all of these (save one of .£5l) a conviction was obtained. The exception in question appears to have resulted as a consequence of the restitution by the defaulter of the sum involved, between the date of the discovery and the taking of Court proceedings.
