PUBLIC ACCOUNTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 1920. REPORT OF THE CONTROLLER AND AUDITOR-GENERAL AS REQUIRED BY SECTION 84, SUBSECTION (2), OF THE PUBLIC REVENUES ACT, 1910. In accordance with section 84 of the Public Revenues Act, 1910, the Controller and Auditor-General has the honour to submit to Parliament the statement of accounts prepared by the Treasury Department for the financial year ended 31st March, 1920, and to report as follows :— (1.) The statement has been examined and found correct. (2.) There are no discrepancies between the statement and the books of the Treasury. The statement of accounts presented herewith gives full details of the receipts and payments of the Public Account for the year, the total lodgments to Public Account being £87,098,113 and the issues £87,596,662. Public Accounts. Accounts. The various accounts enumerated below dealing with the operations of the Public Account for the period under review have been duly audited and certified to and presented to Parliament :— Abstract of the Public Account. Civil List Account. Appropriation Account. Unauthorized Expenditure Account. Payments without Appropriation. Owing to exceptional circumstances it was found necessary for the Audit Office to sanction the payment of moneys as stated below out of the Public Account without appropriation, the Government undertaking to introduce validating legislation and indemnify the Audit Office in respect thereof : — >■. (I.) Advances for the purchase of wheat, ,£241,367. (Note. —Consequent on shipping difficulties in Australia it was necessary to hold in Melbourne wheat which had been purchased by Government for New Zealand, and advances against such wheat in store had to be made out of Unauthorized Account pending its sale on its arrival in New Zealand, particularly as the operation would be of benefit in relation to the general food-supply and cost of living.) (2.) Advances to the Kohimarama Flying School, £4,850. (Note. —This matter was one of urgent public policy and in the interests of the State, and no other method was available to defray the expenditure.) The Auditor-General considers that this form of financial procedure can only be justified by abnormally imperative conditions, and would suggest that legislation should be enacted to provide for meeting such emergency expenditure, and that the said expenditure shall remain a charge against the Government till ratified by Parliament. Public Debt. The Statement of Public Debt accompanying the parliamentary paper 8.-6 was examined and verified with the Audit Office Debt Register, the total debt at the 31st March, 1920, being £201,170,755, an increase during the financial year of £25,094,495. As the whole of this sum was raised in New Zealand, a large amount of work was involved in checking the entries and examining the securities before being signed by the Auditor-General as provided by law. A noticeable feature is the increase in popularity of inscribed stock as a form of security for loans raised in New Zealand, and it has been found necessary to institute a continuous audit of this class of transaction in order to deal expeditiously with the increased volume of work. War Expenses Audit. The examination of the War Expenses Account has been kept concurrent with the expenditure thereof, and the final audit of soldiers' accounts was dealt simultaneously with the examination of the war-gr.'ifuitv payments. Up to date 92,304 claims for gratuities have been disposed of, and nearly 10,000 claims for dependants' allowances dealt with. The Audit staff engaged on war work lias been gradually reduced from ninety to twenty-six to date.hereof. War Loans. There has necessarily been a lessening of the amount raised for war expenses during the year: £11,628,985 has been raised, as compared with £22,274,205 raised during the previous financial year. Notvvithstanding this decrease, the new issue involved the examination of some twelve thousand bonds and five thousand inscriptions of stock. The decrease in the amount of loans for war expenditure is largely counterbalanced by the loans raised to provide moneys for discharged-soldiers-settlement purposes, amounting during the year to over ten millions.

Surcharges. Receiver, Immigration Department, Wellington, £36. (Note. —The Audit Office having found on examination made that there was an amount of £36 paid to the Receiver, Immigration Department, as a nomination fee for an assisted passage which he failed to bring to charge in his cash-book and bank in compliance with Treasury Regulations, which sum was shown to have been stolen from his office, a surcharge was issued against tho Receiver, under section 65 of the Public Revenues Act, 1910. He appealed to the Minister of Immigration under section 67 of the Public Revenues Act, who decided to relieve him of three-fourths of the said surcharge and ordered payment of one-fourth part of the amount, which was paid accordingly.) Command Paymaster, Wellington District, £155 12s. (Note. —Imprest moneys not being accounted for as required by law, and the evidence relating thereto disclosing that a loss of the above-named amount had occurred through the imprestee's fault and negligence within the meaning of section 65 (c) of the Public Revenues Act, a surcharge was accordingly issued by the Audit Office against the Command Paymaster as imprestee. He appealed to the Minister of Defence under sections 66 and 67 of the Act, who decided that he be relieved from enforcement of the surcharge pending criminal action against Trooper Will and recovery of the £155 12s. from the insurance company. Under this decision the surcharge is still operative till the moneys are made good.) Other surcharges issued were duly satisfied by payment of the sums in dispute. Several peculations have taken place with regard to public moneys or property which have not been reported either to the Treasury or Audit, but treated as though they were merely a matter of departmental responsibility. As such practice is clearly not in conformity with the terms and intentions of the Public Revenues Act, instructions have been issued by the Treasury to Heads of Departments to the effect that immediately on the discovery of any peculation or financial irregularity by any officer of the Department or office under their control, they shall at once report the same to Treasury and Audit, so that a due and full understanding of the facts of the case may be obtained and action taken thereon. Imperfect Vouchers. Authority was given by the Minister of Finance under powers contained in section 69 of the Public Revenues Act, 1910, which enabled the Audit Office to pass certain claims without the production of supporting vouchers in the circumstances stated hereunder : — (1.) That receipts were not obtained : (2.) That it was not possible to obtain them : (3.) That they were lost and could not be replaced. The total of claims so passed was £1,164 15s. 2d., the details of which appear in a schedule attached hereto. Under authority contained in section 70 of the Public Revenues Act, 1910, the Audit Office passed certain vouchers as shown in the schedule attached, which were defective for want of certificates or other relative document. Accounts outside Public Account. Accounts. The several accounts named below have been examined and certified to as required by section 86 of the Public Revenues Act, 1910, and will be transmitted to Parliament by the respective Departments concerned : — Post Office Account. State Advances. Government Insurance. Housing Account. Government Accident Insurance. Superannuation Funds. Public Trust. National Provident Fund. State Fire Insurance. Local Authorities. The improvement in the practice of local authorities noted in my report of last year as obviously resulting from more clearly defined legislation has continued during the year now under review, and it is pleasing to add that these bodies in general are recognizing that it is one of the chief aims of the Audit Office to aid rather than to embarrass them in deciding what are actually their statutory functions in cases where there are doubts on the subject, and to fulfil them accordingly. There is a steadily growing radius of the sphere of operations of the Audit Office in connection with local authorities, involving corresponding increase in its staff of _ Audit Inspectors, and if the electric-power schemes develop to anything like the extent now indicated a further considerable addition of responsibility will fall on the Department. In the meantime various improvements in the form of legislative amendment of the Counties and Municipal Corporations Acts, together with one or two minor Acts, have been suggested by the Audit Office, and should they become law they will have the effect of enabling the audit of all local-authority accounts to be carried out in as complete a manner as can well be devised or desired. . , The recoveries and refunds of irregular or illegal general expenditure, of adjustments of loan-moneys raised or diverted without statutory authority, enforced by Audit since my last report represent a very considerable total; but there has happily been only one case of a localbody officer's defalcations calling for criminal action, and in this the offender was sentenced to a term of imprisonment. Imperial Government Supplies Department. The Audit Office has continued the examination of the accounts of the Department of Imperial Government Supplies, the operations of which were not curtailed to any great extent during the past

year. The total disbursements up to the 31st March, 1920, amounted to £133,091,240, the expenditure since last report being £37,181,640. Steps are now being taken to pre-audit the distribution of the wool profits. The amount of £1,619,069 has been made available by the Imperial Government as the profits arising out of the Wool-sales Account up to 31st March, 1919. Miscellaneous. Stores Audit. The Audit Office has been fortunate in securing the services of a very capable officer as Stores Auditor, who will take up his duties as such on his return from Samoa, where he is engaged in reorganizing the stores system- and departmental administration. District Treasury Office. A District Treasury Office has been established in Auckland, and provision has been made by the Audit Office for a local audit to deal with the claims as received, which will not only make for prompt payment but for present and prospective economy in the purchase of supplies. Decentralization of the Public Trust Office. The decentralization of the Public Trust Office has also added to the work of the Department, and in order to maintain an efficient continuous audit special officers have been appointed to perform this work. Becent Legislation. Recent legislation has added largely to the Audit duties, and amongst those which have called for a great deal of attention are the many transactions under the Discharged Soldiers Settlement Act, the Housing Act, and the Repatriation Act. Losses, Deficiencies, Debts Irrecoverable, &c, to be written off. Under a Treasury regulation recently issued the Audit Office is enabled to furnish a schedule of losses or deficiencies in cash, stores, or supplies for which authority will be sought from Parliament before such are written off the public accounts. The total amount for which indemnity is required is £40,897 Bs. 4d. as per statement attached. Patriotic War Funds. There is a vague sense of unrest as to the future of some of these funds, which it is highly desirable should be allayed at the earliest possible date, and the Audit Office is awaiting information which will enable it to issue instructions for final audits and the clearing-up of many of these outstanding but practically moribund accounts. Staff. The Controller and Auditor-General is indebted to the staff for the excellent manner in which they have carried out their duties. Robert J. Collins, Controller and Auditor-General. Audit Office, Wellington, 28th August, 1920.
