PUBLIC ACCOUNTS FOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH, 1930.

REPORT OF THE CONTROLLER AND AUDITOR-GENERAL.

I have tie honour to submit my report for the year ended 31st March, 1930, in terms ot section 89 of the Public Revenues Act, 1926, which sets out in detail the several headings under which the Controller and Auditor-General is required to present his report to Parliament, and which reads as follows :— " 89. (1) The Treasury shall as soon as practicable after the end of every financial year prepare and send to the Audit Office a statement of the revenue and expenditure of the Public Account during that year. " (2) The Controller and Auditor-General shall forthwith examine that statement, and prepare and sign a report showing : — " (a) The particulars of any discrepancies between such statement and the books of the Treasury : " (b) Full particulars of every case in which the provisions of this or any other Act, or the regulations or any forms, have not been carried out or adopted, or have in any manner been varied or departed from : " (c) Every case of failure to deliver or send in accounts or to collect or account for any moneys or stores : " (d) All sums allowed or disallowed without vouchers or with imperfect vouchers or upon incorrect certificates : " (e) Any proceeding that may have been taken by or against any person in pursuance of the provisions of this Act or the regulations : "(f) All unsatisfied surcharges which have been made by the Controller and AuditorGeneral and all surcharges disallowed by a Minister on appeal: " (g) In what accounts the Controller and Auditor-General has, with the consent of the Minister, dispensed with a detailed audit: " (h) Such other information as may be prescribed, or as the Controller and AuditorGeneral thinks desirable. " (3) The Controller and Auditor-General shall annex or append to the said report copies of all cases laid by him before the Attorney-General for his opinion, together with a copy of the opinion given, in every such case." DISCREPANCIES IN THE ACCOUNTS. Section 89 (2) (a), Public Revenues Act, 1926. In accordance with the above section, I have to report that certain differences exist between the statement of accounts as submitted for audit and the Treasury books, owing to the method of treating investments pursuant to section 16 of the Finance Act, 1927 (No. 2). Shortly stated, the reason for such discrepancies is that payments made out of the various accounts by way of investment are necessarily entered as expenditure in the Treasury books, but under the authority of section .16 of the Finance Act, 1927 (No. 2), such payments are omitted from the expenditure shown in the published accounts, and are treated as balances in hand. The reason for such discrepancies, and the effect of the method now followed, have been fully explained in my reports for the last two years, and need not therefore be repeated. CASES IN WHICH THE PROVISIONS OF THE LAW HAVE NOT BEEN CARRIED OUT. Section 89 (2) (b), Public Revenues Act, 1926. Section 10, Finance Act, 1929. Section 10 of the Finance Act, 1929, amends the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, 1925, in such a manner as to exclude from the operation of the latter Act any loans not charged on the public

B.—l [PT. ll].

revenues of New Zealand. The amendment was intended to exclude from the operation of the Act the loans raised under the Rural Advances Act, 1926 (these loans are not charged on the public revenues), but it has been found that the amendment has the effect of excluding not only the ruraladvances loans, but also other loans amounting to £1,333,163 raised under the New Zealand Stateguaranteed Advances Act, 1909, for the purposes of Land for settlements, Guaranteed mining advances, Native land settlement, Rangitaiki land drainage, and Opening-up Crown land for settlement, and under the Urewera Lands Act, 1921-22, section 10. Annual payments under the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, 1925, were being made in respect of this £1,333,163, but as section 10 of the Finance Act, 1929, was made retrospective to the Ist April, 1927, it appeared that an adjustment of such payments would be necessary. The Treasury has advised, however, that it was not intended to exempt the loans amounting to £1,333,163 from the operation of the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, and that amending legislation will be introduced to cover the position. There appears to be no reason why the loans in question should be exempted, and on the assurance that validating legislation would be introduced the payments under the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, 1925, were allowed by Audit to stand. General Purposes Relief Account. During the year a sum of £5,200 was received from the Wairnarino Fire Relief Association, the Association indicating that it desired the sum to be held as a national fund for assistance by way of loan to sufferers in cases of disaster. With this end in view the moneys were credited to the General Purposes Relief Account, this account having been established under section 136 of the Public Revenues Act, 1926, for the purpose of assisting persons who have suffered loss through fire, flood, earthquake, or other natural disaster, or in aid of persons engaged in works of production. There was, however, no authority of law for crediting these moneys to the General Purposes Relief Account, and the Treasury indicated that it was proposed by the Minister of Finance to introduce legislation validating the payment of the moneys by the Association, and the crediting of them to the General Purposes Relief Account, and on this assurance the credit was passed by Audit. Payment out of Education Purposes Loan Account in respect of Buildings used by the Education Department for Dental Clinics. Education Purposes Loan Act, 1919. —Under section 3 of the Education Purposes Loan Act, 1919, and the schedule thereto, payment is authorized out of the Education Purposes Loan Account, of money required for the acquisition of land for the purposes of any school or other institution, the establishment or maintenance of which is authorized by the Education Act, 1914, and for the erection, structural alteration, improvement, and equipment of buildings used for the purposes of any such institution. There is no statutory provision for any portion of the cost of buildings used for dental clinics to be paid for from the Education Purposes Loan Account. The Audit Office, however, agreed to pass vouchers in respect of buildings used for such purpose on the assurance of the Hon. the Minister of Education that a validating clause would be provided therefor. Railway Department.—Heavy-traffic License Fees. In my annual report for the year ended 31st March, 1929, it was stated that vouchers submitted by the Railway Department supporting the payment of fees for heavy-traffic licenses issued in connection with its omnibus services were queried, as it appeared to the Audit Office that the Crown was not legally liable for fees of this description. On the representation of the Railway Department that the late Railway Board had decided as a matter of policy to pay the same fees in respect of the Department's omnibus services as would be payable by an individual engaged in a similar enterprise, Audit agreed to pass the vouchers conditionally on the expenditure being charged to " Unauthorized," and an undertaking being given that validating legislation would be obtained. In due course provision was made next session for the necessary validation by a clause in the Transport Department Bill, but, owing to the elimination of the clause dealing with the matter along with other clauses in the same Bill, the necessary legislation was not passed. An assurance has been given by the Prime Minister that the necessary legislation will be introduced this session. Losses Incurred by the Department of Health in Respect of the Failure of Immigrant Patients to pay Charges for Maintenance and Treatment in Hospitals. In the past it has been the practice, where an immigrant having no particular domicile has been a patient in a hospital administered by a Board and has been unable to pay the cost of maintenance and treatment, for the charges to be met by the Government from an appropriation under vote " Department of Health, Hospital treatment of immigrants." In the case of hospital institutions under the control of the Department of Health the practice, however, has hitherto been for all sums owing for maintenance and treatment by indigent immigrants to be written off the books of the Department with the authority of Parliament in terms of section 3 (3) of the Public Revenues Act, 1926.

B.—l [Pt. ll].

A sum of £194 3s. was outstanding in the books of the Department in respect of an indigent immigrant who had died in one of the Department's Sanatoria, and the permanent head of the Department sought the approval of the Audit Office to the amount being charged by transfer voucher to the appropriation " Vote, Department of Health, Hospital treatment of immigrants," and also treated as a credit in aid of such vote, instead of being written off the books as a bad debt under the authority of Parliament in the customary manner. It appeared to the Audit Office that the appropriation above referred to was intended only for cases in which payment was required to be made from the Consolidated Fund to the local authorities controlling hospital institutions in respect of immigrants having no particular domicile, and that fees for maintenance and treatment in Government institutions not collectable owing to the indigent circumstances of the immigrant should be written of£ with the authority of Parliament in similar manner to all other sums owing to State Departments which are not collectable. Support for the view held by the Audit Office is to be found in the established rule that "to charge a vote with a sum not actually paid and not legally payable is clearly contrary to the terms of the Appropriation Act." The Audit Office advised the Treasury that it disagreed with the method adopted, as the loss would not be submitted to Parliament for writing off as required by the Public Revenues Act. Audit, however, passed the vouchers in view of the provision appearing in the appropriations. Payment to Members of the General Assembly appointed to (I) the Committee op Inquiry into the Operation of the Shops and Offices Act ; (2) the Committee of Inquiry INVESTIGATING THE IJAW RELATING TO WORKERS' COMPENSATION J (3) PARLIAMENTARY Education Committee ; (4) International Labour Conference. Civil List Act, 1920.—Section 17 of the Civil List Act, 1920, as modified by section 4 of the Public Expenditure Adjustment Act, 1921-22, provides for the sum payable to members of the General Assembly for attendance in the discharge of their parliamentary duties, and section 19 of the Civil List Act, 1920, for the payment of expenses of locomotion in travelling to and returning from a meeting of the General Assembly. There is no statutory provision for members of the General Assembly to receive payment of expenses in connection with the above Committees in addition to the foregoing, but the Audit Office agreed to pass vouchers for certain members in respect of their attendance at these meetings on an assurance being given that a validating clause would be provided therefor. Retirement from the Service of the Second Assistant Secretary, Post and Telegraph Department. In July, 1929, the Government communicated to the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs that it had decided to appoint as its Representative on the Imperial Communications Advisory Committee an officer who was holding the position of Second Assistant Secretary, Post and Telegraph Department, and who was on the eve of retirement. Owing to unavoidable circumstances, it became necessary for this officer to proceed to England earlier than was anticipated, with the result that his term of forty years' service with the Department was not completed, thereby affecting his superannuation .rights and his right to the payment on retirement of a sum equivalent to six months' salary in terms of Regulation 80 under the Post and Telegraph Department Act, 1918. The Department, however, treated the officer as having served in the Department for the full term of forty years, and paid him salary for a period of thirty-four days during which time he was not in the service, and granted him a sum equivalent to six months' salary in accordance with the regulation mentioned, and also calculated his superannuation on the basis of forty years' service. The Audit Office agreed to pass vouchers supporting these payments on the assurance that a validating clause would be provided therefor. Re-employment of Person removed from Office by Governor-General's Warrant. Post and Telegraph Department Act, 1918. —Section 7 (1) of the Post and Telegraph Department Act, 1918, provides that every officer of the Post and Telegraph Department shall be deemed to be a three-monthly servant, and shall be removable by the Governor-General at any time after three months' notice given to that officer by the Secretary or Minister or by any officer acting with the authority of the Secretary or Minister. Under the above provision a Warrant was issued by the Governor-General ordering the removal of an officer from his office in the Post and Telegraph Department after due notice, on the grounds that it had been made to appear that the services of such officer were no longer required. The officer who in due course ceased duties in the Department, but did not receive the refund of contributions to the Superannuation Fund, was later re-employed by the Department in a different capacity, and in order to bridge the break in his superannuation service he was treated as on special leave without pay from the date he was removed from office until he was re-employed. The Audit Office, however, was of opinion that no statutory authority existed enabling the officer to be re-employed or his superannuation rights to be preserved, but agreed to pass vouchers for his salary on receiving an assurance that a validating clause would be provided therefor.

Section 89 (2) (h), Public Revenues Act, 1926. Departmental Accounts. In terms of section 68 (2) of the Public Revenues Act, reports have from time to time been furnished to the Right Hon. the Minister of Finance showing the general result of the inspection, examination, and audit of the books and accounts of accounting officers or other persons in the Public Service. Reports in terms of section 14 of the Public Revenues Act have also been sent to the Right Hon. the Minister of Finance in respect of matters relating to the collection, receipt, issue, and payment of public moneys or stores. The Right Hon. the Minister has, under this section, been advised of all cases of defalcations or irregularity which have been reported to me. Particulars of these cases appear in a statement in this report under the heading " Section 89 (2) (c), Public Revenues Act, 1926." The instances of defalcation or irregularity in which State employees were the delinquents numbered thirteen as against thirty-five in the preceding year, and by persons not employed by the State twenty-five as against fifty-four in the preceding year. Recoveries of moneys misappropriated have been effected to the fullest extent possible. Expenditure Vouchers. The examination of expenditure vouchers of the various Departments has been carried out and adjustments made where necessary. The vouchers and supporting statements submitted for audit showed that commendable care in preparation had been exercised in the accounting branches of Departments.

Parliamentary Control of Expenditure. In my last report attention was drawn to the fact that a large proportion of the annual expenditure was governed by " Permanent Appropriations," and was thus freed from the annual control of Parliament. It is noted that by section 6of the Finance Act, 1929, the law has since been amended as from the Ist April, 1930, so as to bring within the annual appropriations the expenditure hitherto made without further appropriation under the Native Land Act, 1909 (section 417), the Railways Improvement Authorization Act, 1914 (section 5), the Swamp Drainage Act, 1915 (section 4), the Education Purposes Loans Act, 1919 (section 3 (2)), and the Hauraki Plains Act, 1926 (section 10 (1)). This amendment will have the effect of bringing expenditure amounting to several millions within the direct control of Parliament, and remedies the more important instances in which such control had not previously been provided. There will, however, still remain, a large amount of expenditure not subject to annual appropriation, and, though it may not be considered desirable to bring the whole of such expenditure into the annual Appropriation Act, it would appear advisable in the interests of proper control, that an estimate of all expenditure to be made from the various separate accounts under permanent appropriations should be submitted to Parliament in order that the full programme of Government expenditure for the year may be brought under review instead of portion only of such expenditure. Such an estimate is at present submitted in the case of expenditure under permanent appropriations from the Ordinary Revenue Account, but not in the case of such expenditure from other accounts. Apart from the question of obtaining effective control of expenditure, the system of providing for expenditure by permanent appropriations rather than by annual votes has serious disadvantages. The statutory provisions regulating the expenditure require to be of a very detailed nature if control is to be effective, and, as a consequence, the amount of detailed financial legislation in New Zealand is probably without parallel in any other British country. There is always the possibility that, in the course of administration of an Act, unforeseen changes in the circumstances governing expenditure, or slight variations of Government policy relating to receipts and expenditure, may involve conflict with the permanent appropriation provisions of the Act. The financial legislation is now becoming so complex that it is a matter of serious difficulty at times for Audit to ensure that statutory financial provisions are properly complied with. The position is rightly viewed with disfavour by those responsible for drafting financial legislation and also by those whose duty it is to carry it into effect. The position should not, however, be remedied by omitting or abrogating the regulative provisions in financial statutes without providing other measures to take their place, as the result of such omission would be to weaken, if not to nullify, parliamentary control of public finance. The remedy suggested is to provide for the detailed control of expenditure of each separate account by means of the annual appropriations (which are embodied in the annual Appropriation Act and thus given statutory force) instead of by permanent detailed financial provisions in the statutes themselves. If the system followed in other parts of the Empire were adopted and the functions of each separate account were regulated in the governing Act by comparatively broad statutory provisions, the details of expenditure from each account being regulated by means of the annual appropriations, the necessity for detailed regulative provisions in the statutes would to a large extent be obviated, and the financial legislation would be much simplified, while at the same time the effective parliamentary control over expenditure would not be in any way impaired, but, on the contrary, would be strengthened. Repayment of the Public Debt. The total amount of the public debt coming within the provisions of the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, 1925, as at 31st March, 1930, was £196,323,912 14s. 10d., an increase of £1,487,938 9s. 4d. over the previous year. During the year securities amounting to £1,158,471 14s. lid. were redeemed and cancelled, making a total so redeemed under the provisions of this Act, up to the 31st March, 1930, of £5,036,035 Bs. 2d. The following table gives particulars of the amounts so redeemed, and shows that an annual saving of interest amounting to £57,218 13s. 7d. has already been effected by the operation of the Act. The amount of this saving will increase year by year as the cumulative effect of the sinking fund becomes apparent. The table also shows that by purchasing securities at a discount a capital saving of £27,636 10s. lid. has been effected.

A further statement is given below showing the accounts in respect of which the £196,323,912 14s. lOd. debt under the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, referred to above, is outstanding, and also showing the provision for repayment which exists in respect of the balance of the total debt of £270,154,542 18s. 4d. The Rural Advances loans, amounting to £2,771,200, which are without a sinking fund, are not brought into the Public Debt Accounts. In the case of the loans for State Advances Account under the Advances to Settlers, Advances to Workers, and Advances to Local Authorities Branches, though technically subject to special sinking funds, the contribution is dependent on profits, and no necessity exists for a compulsory fixed annual contribution as in the case of the other loans having special sinking funds. In the case of the Advances to Settlers Branch the contribution for the year 1929-30 amounted to approximately 0-161 per cent, of the loans outstanding at the beginning of the year, while in the case of the Advances to Workers and Advances to Local Authorities Branches no contribution to the sinking fund has been made since the provision for a compulsory annual contribution was repealed in the year 1921, as no profits were available for the purpose.

This was in addition to the increase of the public debt shown above.

In the case of loans raised in New Zealand a small amount of charges and expenses has been incurred, but as no portion of such expenses has been directly allocated in the accounts as for redemption of the Consolidated Stock, 1929, such expenses have been disregarded in the above statement. The New Zealand Loans Act, 1908, provides authority to issue further loans to cover the charges and expenses met from Public Works Fund cash (£357,209 os. 5d.), and should this authority be exercised the cost of redemption shown above will probably be increased. Public Account Cash Balance Investment Account. This account, it may be explained, is a suspense account (without any credit balance) against which payments by way of investment are sometimes charged, instead of charging against the relative account. Its object is to enable the aggregate of the balances of the various separate accounts within the Public Account to be invested close up, and without charging the investments against the individual accounts lending the money. In my last report I drew attention to the fact that owing to the system of charging investments against the above account the public accounts were misleading, and I there pointed out by way of example, that the amount shown as " Cash in the Public Account " in the Ordinary Revenue Account (which is only one of many accounts within the Public Account) exceeded the total amount shown as cash in the Public Account, which was not actually the case, and indeed was an impossibility. For the year 1929-30 an endeavour has been made to overcome this objection by stating the balance at the end of the period as " Cash " simply, instead of " Cash in the Public Account " as previously shown. This, however, does not remedy the position, as the fact still remains that the balances shown as " Cash " are not actually represented by cash in the hands of the Government. For example, in 8.-I [Part I], 1929-30, page 11, there appears in the Ordinary Revenue Account as balance at end of year the item " Cash, £1,510,239 Bs. 8d.," but a reference to 8.-I [Part ll], 1929-30, pages 3 and 4, indicates that at that date the total cash in the hands of the Government amounted to only £1,374,242 12s. 7d., this amount being held in the Public Account —in Wellington £1,370,553 9s. 3d., and London £3,689 3s. 4d. The cash balance of the Ordinary Revenue Account at 31st March, 1930, is therefore overstated. The true position is that the individual balances shown in the separate accounts as " Cash " at 31st March, 1930, were overstated by £2,500,000 in all, which amount had been paid out of cash and invested on fixed deposit, and was therefore no longer cash in the hands of the Government, but was represented by investments which could not properly be termed " cash " until they were realized. (It is to be noted that though the investments at this particular time were represented by fixed deposits, it does not necessarily follow that this must always be the case, as such investments may be made in any securities in which balances of the Public Account may be invested, except New Zealand Government securities. Such investments have in the past been actually made in British Government securities.) The effect of this system is that the various accounts within the Public Account, which were designed to record the amount of cash in

the Public Account available for issue for the purposes of each separate account, fail of their purpose. For example, the total shown in the Ordinary Revenue Account at 31st March, 1930, would seem to indicate that cash issues chargeable against that account could be made to the amount of £1,510,239 Bs. Bd., but had such an amount been actually issued it would have overdrawn the Public Account, which is contrary to law. The effect of the present system as contrasted with the system of charging all investments against the appropriate accounts to which the money belongs, is to weaken the control over the issue of public moneys, and render the accounts more difficult to interpret. The system as now followed has other undesirable features. When a loan is raised in London it is usual to temporarily invest the loan-moneys until actually required, and it has become customary to charge all such investments against the Public Account Cash Balance Investment Account, instead of against the separate accounts to which the loan-moneys belong and to which they have actually been credited. The result is that the interest on the investments, instead of being credited to the accounts which actually earn it and which in some cases are themselves paying the interest on the loan raised, is allocated between all the accounts forming the Pubic Account. For example, in the case of the London loan raised during the present year the loan receipts for the month of May amounted to £3,961,000, and during the same month £3,815,000 was temporarily invested in London from these loan receipts. The loan receipts, amounting to £3,961,000, were credited as follows : Public Works Fund, General Purposes Account, £3,241,000; Electric Supply Account, £360,000; and Railways Improvement Authorization Act 1914 Account, £360,000; but the temporary investments of £3,815,000 were not charged against these accounts, but against the Public Account- Cash Balance Investment Account. As a result, the three loan accounts showed the loan receipts as a cash balance, though nearly the whole of such cash had been paid out by way of investment, while the interest on such investments, instead of being credited as if earned on the moneys of the three loan accounts, will be allocated to all the accounts forming the Public Account as if earned by the moneys of all these accounts. The effect is to credit part of the interest earned by the moneys of the loan accounts mentioned to other accounts which have not actually earned such interest, and which do not own the money. Another unsatisfactory feature of the system is the method by which this allocation of interest between the various accounts within the Public Account is made. It is customary to allocate the interest in proportion to the total daily balances of the various accounts for the month in which the interest is received and the preceding month. There is thus little relation between the balances used as the basis of the allocation and the balances existing during the period in which the interest was actually earned. It is clear that, if an allocation of such interest is to be made in proportion to balances, the balances during the period in which interest was earned should, from an equitable point of view, form the basis of the apportionment. The following actual example will illustrate the inequity of the present method of apportionment. A fixed deposit of £500,000 was made on the 10th March, 1930, to mature Ist September, 1930. On the basis now being adopted the interest on this investment will be allocated in proportion to the balances for the period from, Ist August to 30th September, though it is clear that the balances earning the interest are those for the period from 10th March to Ist September. It has been represented to Audit by the Treasury that the adoption of the practice of allocating directly to the accounts lending the money would involve a multiplicity of book entries and would occasion delay. The Audit Office is unable to agree that any delay need ensue. There may be instances, however, when the balances of accounts are very low, in which the allocation would not be considered essential, but these exceptions should not interfere with the adoption of the principle I have set out, wherever practicable. Actually the amount debited to the Public Account Cash Balance Investment Account has at times exceeded £8,000,000, and not infrequently reaches the sum of £6,000,000, and it would clearly not be impracticable to debit a large proportion of such amounts against the appropriate accounts to which the moneys belong, and to which they have already been actually credited by the Treasury. The interest received on cash balance investments is credited to " Deposits Account —Interest on Cash Balance Investments Account," and is allocated therefrom to every one of the various separate accounts, instead of to certain of the separate accounts only. No record of the amounts of interest so allocated appears in the Public Accounts for 1929-30, and 1 therefore append a statement showing the details. In future it is proposed to show such amounts, I understand.

Finance Act, 1926, Section 22. Prior to the year 1925 certain of the separate accounts constituted by statute and forming part of the Public Account had, under statutory provisions, made contributions to sinking funds for the redemption of the loans raised for the purposes of such accounts. On the coming into operation of the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, 1925, the investments of the sinking funds in question became part of the Public Debt Redemption Fund, the interest on which was payable to the Consolidated Fund, thus in effect depriving the separate accounts of the sinking funds which they had built up. On the other hand, the Consolidated Fund has on occasion either directly or through the operation of the Repayment of the Public Debt Act, 1925, and without any contribution from the separate accounts, paid of! loans of various separate accounts. To cover the position thus created provision was made by the Finance Act, 1926, section 22 (as amended by the Finance Act, 1927, sections 18 and 19, and the Finance Act, 1928, section 16) for the amount of any loans of separate accounts paid off by the Consolidated Fund to become a liability of the separate account to the Consolidated Fund, bearing interest, if the Minister of Finance so directs, at such rate as he might determine. Provision was also made for the amount actually contributed by separate accounts to any sinking fund now forming part of the Public Debt Redemption Fund, together with simple or compound interest thereon for such periods and at such rates as the Minister of Finance might determine, to become an asset of the separate accounts, to be applied in reduction of the liability to the Consolidated Fund arising from the repayment of loans as mentioned above, as and when such liability accrues. In determining the rate of interest to be charged on the liability and allowed on the asset of each separate account, the Treasury has fixed sim/ple interest at 4 per cent, on the liability of the separate account, and compound interest at 4 per cent, on the asset of the separate account. The effect of charging simple interest on the one hand and compound interest on the other is similar to charging a different rate of interest, and appears to be inequitable in principle. In the opinion of Audit the same rate of interest should be allowed on both sides of the account. It is impossible to say whether the separate accounts will or will not be able to meet their liability for interest to the Consolidated Fund annually as and when it accrues. They have not done so in the past in all cases. It is therefore advisable to provide a system which will ensure an equitable effect whether interest is paid annually or not. Further, in ascertaining the amount of the asset representing sinking funds the amount of the sinking fund accumulations has in some cases been taken as the basis instead of the amount of the actual contributions paid from the separate accounts, as required by the Act. The rate charged, 4 per cent., also appears to be unduly low when compared with current rates of interest. It seems undesirable that the Consolidated Fund should receive interest at only 4 per cent, on the liabilities of separate accounts, for this in effect means that the Consolidated Fund is subsidizing such separate accounts by the difference between 4 per cent, and the current rate of interest on Government loans. In the majority of cases there is little, if any, sinking fund to set off against the liability, and the Consolidated Fund will therefore suffer by reason of the fixing of a low rate of interest. As the amounts involved will in the course of time be very large, it appears to be a matter of considerable importance that an adequate and equitable rate of interest should be decided on, as the accuracy of the separate accounts and also of the departmental balance-sheets is affected. Earthquake Relief Fund. It was arranged by the Government that moneys received as contributions to the Earthquake Relief Fund should so far as possible be paid into the Public Account, and expended therefrom for the purposes for which they were subscribed. The transactions were passed through an account opened for the purpose under the heading " Deposits Account —Earthquake Relief Fund," particulars of which will be found in 8.-l [Part ll], page 67. Owing to the fact that in many cases the vouchers for payments from the Deposit Account did not indicate the exact nature of the expenditure, it was considered by the Treasury to be impracticable to closely analyse such expenditure, and the broad headings adopted give only an approximate indication of the purposes for which the moneys were expended. Under these circumstances the audit of the transactions of the Deposit Account was confined to ensuring, as far as possible, that all contributions were properly accounted for, and that the expenditure made had the approval of a responsible officer of the Treasury and was supported by acquittances. Working Railways Account. Sections 19 and 20, Finance Act, 1929. These sections repealed the provision for transfer from the Consolidated Fund to the Working Railways Account of a sum equal to the losses on branch lines and isolated sections, and at the same time reduced the capital on which the Working Railways Account is required to pay interest to the Consolidated Fund by the sum of £8,100,000. The effect of such legislation is to reduce the amount of subsidy received by the Working Railways Account by a sum, based on the figures of previous years, of approximately £490,000 per annum, and at the same time to reduce the interest paid by the railways by a sum, based on the present rate of interest fixed by regulation, of £344,250 per annum, for which sum the Consolidated Fund is now responsible,

B.—l [PT. ll].

The £8,100,000 represents the amount of ordinary revenue moneys expended on railway capital works in past years, and this amount will now in effect be treated as ordinary revenue diverted to unproductive capital works, instead of to productive capital works as hitherto. The absence of any interest charge on this amount will in effect provide a subsidy to the Working Railways Account of £344,250 per annum (which however will not be shown in the accounts) in place of the subsidy on branch lines and isolated sections, which has hitherto been shown in the accounts. Expenditure in respect of Railways not brought to Charge in the Railway Accounts. In my report last year reference was made to the allocation to the Working Railways Account of the charges and expenses of raising the capital moneys expended in the construction and development of the railways. An allocation has now been made, but this allocation does not cover the full amount of charges and expenses as it has been held by the Crown Law Office that the Railway Finance Regulations, as they now stand, do not permit of the allocation of certain charges and expenses incurred in raising moneys for the redemption and conversion of loans. It seems clear, however, that a large proportion of such charges is, from an accounting point of view, properly chargeable against the railways. The total amount expended for charges and expenses of raising public works loans for the five years to the 31st March, 1930, was as follows :—

Of the total of £2,237,317 18s. 2d., the sum of £1,146,095 ss. lOcl. represented charges and expenses on fresh loans, while £1,091,222 12s. 4d. represented charges and expenses of loans raised for redemption or conversion of existing loans. An appropriate proportion of the £1,146,095 ss. 10d. has been allocated to the railways, but no portion of the £1,091,222 12s. 4d. has been so allocated. A statement appearing on page xii of the tables accompanying the Budget for last year (8.-6, 1929) shows that of the total expenditure of £108,322,299 made from the Ptiblic Works Fund to 31st March, 1929, some £52,320,084 was expended on the railways, representing approximately 52/108ths of the total expenditure on public works. As the £1,091,222 12s. 4d. represents charges incurred in connection with the loans from which such expenditure was made, approximately 52/108ths of such charges should, from an accounting point of view, be allocated as railway expenditure, and it follows that the Railway Accounts have during the last five years been undercharged by an amount exceeding £500,000 in respect of charges and expenses. In the interests of correct accounting it would seem that the Railway Finance Regulations should be so amended as to enable the full amount properly chargeable against the railways to be so charged. It is to be noted that in respect of the period prior to Ist April, 1925, no portion of the charges and expenses of raising any public-works loans for railway purposes has been charged against the railways, the Railway Finance Regulations having been so drawn up as to prevent the charging of any such expenses incurred prior to that date which is the date of separation of the Railway Accounts from the Consolidated Fund. This also applies to Public Works Departmental administration charges incurred in connection with the railways. The capital expenditure on the railways as shown in the Railway Accounts is therefore apparently understated by a large sum in respect of these items. Other loan charges of which the railways should bear a proper proportion are stamp duty on transfers of New Zealand Consolidated Stock and the charges of management of such stock. It is doubtful whether there is lawful authority to recover from the railways a proportion of the stamp duty on transfers, but in the case of charges of management the Finance Act, 1927 (No. 2), section 15, apparently provides full authority to recover a due proportion of such charges from the Working Railways Account. Such proportion would probably amount to not less than £10,000 per annum, but up to the present no portion of these charges has been recovered. Another item of expenditure on railways which is not brought into the Railway Accounts is interest incurred during construction of lines and works. The Railway Finance Regulations do not permit of the charging of this expenditure against the railways, whether incurred before or after the separation of the Railway Accounts from the Consolidated Fund. The result is that the interest paid on publicworks loans used for railway purposes for the period during the construction of the railway-works, falls as a direct and final charge on the Consolidated Fund, and is not in any way charged in the Railway Accounts. The amount involved must amount in all to a good many millions.

Departmental Accounts and Balance-sheets. All Departments submitted income and expenditure or revenue accounts and balance-sheets for the year 1928-29, and these have been duly examined by the Audit Office. There were only twelve accounts for the year 1928-29 which were not completed in time to be presented to Parliament last session, which is a very decided improvement on the position, in former years. In my report to Parliament in 1928 I referred to the practice adopted in England of carrying forward the result of each year's trading when preparing the accounts and balance-sheets of the trading or commercial services of the Government. This matter was reported to the Treasury, which, while appreciating the fact that in certain cases a statement of the total profit or loss to date might be of interest, considered that continuity of accounts is necessary only in respect of such services where the accounts are on a separate cash basis, are wholly commercial, and, as such, are expected to pay their way. I am of the opinion that the English practice should be extended to cover the cases of all trading or semi-trading concerns, as in some cases the showing of the accumulated financial results may have a decisive effect in determining the future policy regarding such services. In accounts such as those of the Crown lands, Scenery-preservation, and the State Forest there is a lack of uniformity in the basis adopted for the valuation of Crown lands, where the cost price is not available. The cause of this, no doubt, is the different uses to which the land is put on account of the varying activities of the Departments concerned. The matter of rectifying this lack of uniformity is at present receiving consideration. Great difficulties were experienced in the early stages of the preparation of the annual departmental balance-sheets, but year by year improvements have been brought about both in the system and also in the accuracy of detail. Owing to the constant improvements and alterations during the process of perfecting the system, it necessarily follows that comparison of one year's results with those of another has not been possible, except in a few instances where a system has been uniformly continued. It may be said, however, that the system as now established in most departments is sufficiently reliable to enable valuable data to be obtained from time to time by comparing the results of one year with those of another. I have given in the succeeding paragraph a few instances where this has been done, and there are many other similar cases which could be cited. I have said sufficient, however, to indicate that the time has arrived when the departmental balance-sheets, by enabling analyses and comparisons to be made from year to year, will promote that economical administration which it may be said is their ultimate object and purpose. The Audit Office is fully aware that the present satisfactory condition of departmental balancesheets is principally due to the efficiency of the accounting staffs of the Departments. The magnitude of the work in some departments, especially in its initial stages, can only be appreciated by those who have been closely associated with the preparation and examination of these accounts. Space does not permit me to submit a full and comprehensive criticism of the balance-sheets of the various Departments of State in this report, but I have taken the accounts of three Departments —Post and Telegraph, Prisons, and Education —as being representative of other Departments, and offer the following comments thereon. Post and Telegraph Department Balance-sheet. A notable example of the beneficial results of the production of commercial accounts is that of the Post and Telegraph Department. Prior to the financial year ended the 31st March, 1921, the accounts submitted were in the form of a summary of the cash transactions of the Department, giving no reliable information as to the profit or loss resulting from the Department's activities. Although the expenditure of loan-moneys to date of balance was known, the value of the assets created as a result of that expenditure could in no way be accurately ascertained, and the subdivision of expenditure and the allocation of assets to the various branches of the Department could not be satisfactorily made. The first commercial accounts published, therefore, were based, in the case of many items, on estimates only, and arbitrary apportionments of expenditure and classification of assets had to be made, while flat rates of depreciation were then the rule. From that year onwards there has been a steady progress recorded, although, as would be expected in a concern of such magnitude, improvement could only be gradual. The classification and valuation of assets which were among the earliest works undertaken enabled more correct rates of depreciation and also other correct charges to be made to the various profit and loss accounts. A greatly improved classification of expenditure has enabled a more accurate apportionment of charges between capital and revenue to be made, although, with such problems as reconstruction and renewals, the Department is not yet satisfied but is making strenuous efforts to further improve the position. These are matters in which difficulties are experienced in other countries as well as in New Zealand. The subdivision of the profit and loss accounts under the various branches is now on a sound basis, and gives the authorities a knowledge of the profitableness or otherwise of any branch. In this respect a study of the comparative results of the activities of the Telegraph and Tolls branches is not uninteresting, viz. : — Year ended Telegraph Tolls 31st March, „ Loss - , „ Profit - , ' £ s. d. £ s. d. 1926 .. .. .. .. .. 119,191 4 3 79,169 4 6 1927 .. .. .. .. .. 100,93117 7 83,642 010 1928 .. .. .. .. .. 130,807 12 10 97,387 6 3 1929 .. .. .. .. .. 128,823 18 1 124,946 6 4

As a result of the preparation of the profit and loss accounts, it is now possible for the Department to conduct its business on sound commercial lines. Improved methods of stock accounting in this Department have also resulted in economy and efficiency, as witness the reduction in the value of stores in stock in later years as compared with previous years :— £ s. d. 31st March, 1925 .. .. .. .. .. 904,693 17 11 31st March, 1926 .. .. .. .. .. 796,770 13 5 31st March, 1927 .. .. .. .. .. 741,398 15 7 31st March, 1928 .. .. .. .. .. 663,749 11 7 31st March, 1929 .. .. .. .. .. 465,411 17 11 Prisons Department Balance-sheet. In 1921 the Prisons Department prepared a general income and expenditure account and balance-sheet. There were, however, no income and expenditure or working accounts produced showing the result of the various activities of the Department. , In 1922 the following three accounts were prepared : (1) Prisons and Institutions Account; (2) Quarry Trading Account; (3) Farm Trading Account. In 1923, three farm trading accounts were prepared ; three quarry trading accounts ; four working and profit and loss accounts at Auckland; one trading account at Wi Tako ; one trading account at Waikune ; and one general prisons and institutions income and expenditure account. In 1924 full separate institutional accounts and a trading or revenue account of each separate activity of the Department were prepared, and have been continued to date. In recent years every attention has been given to co-ordinating the accounts and the internal workings thereof, until to-day it can be confidently claimed that the published accounts give a fair and comprehensive illustration of the many activities of the Department. The Department's early accounts were prepared at the end of each year from Head Office records, and certain annual returns submitted by each institution. This system could only result in approximately correct results at best. In later years the accounting at the institutions has been revised and improved, and much more information along standard lines is now sent to Head Office monthly. This has enabled an effective internal check to be imposed, and the present accounts are considerably more accurate than those of previous years. The Department's commercial operations are not comparable with similar activities of private concerns, on account of the unavoidable difficulty in estimating labour costs. The labour is usually unskilled and has to be employed in any case, whether or not any return is derived by the State. The valuation of prison labour for accounting purposes has always been difficult, and, although entire satisfaction in this direction appears to be impossible of attainment, the results may be considered to be as fair as possible. All prisoners are classified according to their ability to perform certain tasks and their labour is charged at different rates from Bs. to 2s. 6d. per day. While it is not suggested that the ultimate financial result should be the deciding factor in determining what work offenders should be engaged upon, nevertheless better accounting has enabled the Department to divert labour from certain costly ventures where the loss to the State was altogether out of proportion to any benefit derived by the prisoners. I would point out, however, that the mere fact that, a profit or loss has occurred should not be the sole factor in determining the continuance of an activity of a Department such as this. It must be remembered that to the Prisons Department, farming and other industries were primarily undertaken as a means to the rehabilitation of criminals in society, and not with the sole idea of reducing the cost of the institutions. Education Department. The balance-sheet of this Department, in common with those of several other Departments, presents difficulties which are peculiar to itself, and which require particular and unusual treatment. One of these difficulties is in connection with capital expenditure, which, though not representing a loss, leaves the Department with no corresponding tangible asset on which a monetary value can be placed. Under this heading are classified items such as grants to Education Boards and other bodies for the purchase of sites, buildings, equipment, &c., for the purpose of education in its various grades and branches, such as kindergarten, elementary, secondary, higher, technical, training of teachers, and education of the blind. Such expenditure undoubtedly results in the creation of an asset for the benefit of the country, but, strictly speaking, it is not an asset of the Department, although included in the accounts under the heading of "National Development Account." The amount thus accumulated at the 31st March, 1929, is £6,824,658. Another matter in which no parallel can be found in non-government concerns and which requires particular treatment if the accounts are to be compiled on commercial lines, is the estimating of the value of work performed by wards of the State in connection with the various activities of the Department. Apart from the fact that numbers of the inmates of the Department's institutions are feeble-minded or sub-normal, they are not voluntarily working for their living, and the profitable employment of their services from a monetary point of view is not the prime object of the Department. It was found that the cost of supervision at least equalled the value of the services rendered. As the rate of maintenance fees charged and collected is not governed by the cost to the State, no purpose would be served by apportioning these fees to the various institutions, and this is not done.

It was found that the varied nature of the many activities of this very important Department necessitated a particularly comprehensive system of book-keeping to enable a satisfactory statement of accounts to be prepared. A conference consisting of representatives of the Education Department, Audit, and Treasury was accordingly held in the year 1923, with the result that details were agreed upon, and very carefully prepared accounts of all the branches of the Department are now submitted annually. Beneficial results, particularly in regard to the system of control of stores, have been obtained by the adoption of sound methods of stores accounting, some evidence of which may be gained from the following comparative statement showing the gradual reduction in the value of stores held in stock from year to year since the Audit Office first took the matter up : —

The accounts may be said to give a fair and comprehensive view of the result of the Department'? undertakings, and should be very useful for comparative and informative purposes. Audit of Government Property and Stores. The audit of Government store accounts differs materially from the audit of receipts and payments accounts in which latter the cost of the stores appears under date of purchase as a final charge, and the date of use, as well as the methods of use, are not recorded. Stores accounts are not an integral part of the cash accounts, and though the cash accounts may be quite in order, it would not necessarily follow that the stores and material used had been utilized in the manner intended by Parliament. I would again emphasize the fact that some stores can be more easily misappropriated than money, and the resulting loss to the public is the. same whether the money granted to purchase the stores is misappropriated or whether the stores themselves after purchase are misappropriated. Care and vigilance is also necessary in checking all transactions connected with the disposal of Government produce or goods manufactured by the State. A very large amount of inspection work has been carried out during the year, and I append a list of the Government Departments whose stores have been audited. 1 am pleased to say that nearly all Government Departments have now submitted Stores Regulations for Audit review. The only important. Department which has not yet done so is the Railway Department. It is encouraging to find that the value of cost-accounting in connection with stores is rapidly becoming more generally appreciated not only in the Government service, but in many of the Local Bodies also. A thoroughly satisfactory system has been established in many of the local institutions which come under the review of the Audit Inspectors.

LIST OF DEPARTMENTS THE PROPERTY AND STORES OF WHICH HAVE BEEN AUDITED DURING THE YEAR—continued.

Local Authorities. I am pleased to record the fact that during the past year the work of auditing the accounts of local authorities, which for many years has been in arrear owing to shortage of staff, was, in the majority of the Audit-inspecting districts, brought practically up to date. In the remaining districts arrangements are being made to ensure that the arrears shall be overtaken during the current year. Visits of Inspection. —During the year visits of inspection to the District Audit Inspectors were made by myself in the North Island and by my Deputy in the South Island. Fifteen districts in all were visited, with very satisfactory results. The opportunity was also taken of visiting the offices of many of the local authorities whose accounts come under the supervision of the Audit Inspectors. It was gratifying to find that the responsible officers of these bodies were efficient and zealous in the discharge of their duties. Form of Accounts. —Very considerable improvement has taken place in the form in which certain local authorities' accounts are now presented, brought about by the amending legislation of recent years, and there appears to be a desire in some quarters that other local authorities which are still required by law to prepare their accounts in the form only of a receipts and payments account should present them in the form also of an income and expenditure account and balance-sheet. There is room for improvement in the manner of the presentation of the accounts mentioned, and the matter of introducing legislation in the direction indicated is worthy of consideration. Election-costs. —During the year the Audit Office was on more than one occasion required, in terms of the governing statutes, to determine disputes regarding the proportion of the costs incurred by a Borough or County Council in conducting the elections of members of Electric-power Boards or Harbour Boards which should be borne by those Boards. There is not only a considerable diversity in the statutory provisions governing the allocation of election-costs, but there is also a great difference of opinion amongst local authorities concerned in a combined election as to what are the reasonable additional costs of holding an Electric-power Board or Harbour Board election simultaneously with the election of their own members. It is desirable that the statutory provisions governing the allocation of election-costs of the several classes of local authorities should be made uniform, and that a clear definition of what constitutes the reasonable additional costs of an election should be provided by regulation. Breaches of Statute. —The Audit Office was during the year called upon to deal with numerous breaches of statute by local-body members and officers as detailed in Schedule "A " below. In all cases an adjustment of accounts or a recovery of the moneys, as required by Audit, was enforced, excepting where a satisfactory explanation was made or where special circumstances were such that an adjustment or recovery was withheld conditionally on legislation being obtained to validate the irregularities. In one case where the Audit Office required an amount expended in excess of the unauthorized limit to be recovered from the members of a certain Board, the Clerk advised that the refunds had been made by the members who were responsible, but it was subsequently discovered by the Audit Inspector that four employees of the Board had each been allegedly granted a bonus for extra work

performed by them, and that the sum of these bonuses had been donated to the members and applied in payment of the amount required by Audit Office to be refunded by them. The Audit Office questioned the Board's bona fides in this transaction, and subsequently recovered to the Board's fund the amount originally claimed from the members. A similar case in which it is reported that members of a Board, who were required to refund amounts illegally paid to them, have since obtained payments from the Board in order to make such amounts good is now under investigation. Defalcations. —In the past year the Audit Office dealt with twelve cases of misappropriation of funds by local-body officials, particulars of which were in every instance placed in the hands of the police. The defaulters were dealt with by Criminal Court action, excepting in one case, where the defaulter had absconded from New Zealand ; and in this latter connection the local body concerned has lodged security for the issue of an extradition warrant in the event of the defaulter being subsequently found. The largest sum misappropriated by any one official in the twelve cases mentioned above was £1,460 19s. 2d. Whilst dealing with the matter of defalcations, it is opportune to draw attention to the fact that several classes of local authorities are not required by law to take security from their officials for the faithful execution of their duties. The failure of some local authorities to require those officers dealing with moneys to enter into fidelity bonds has resulted in considerable loss to the ratepayers, and the Audit Office recommends that steps be taken at the earliest opportunity to bring all local bodies into line in this matter, and that it be made compulsory for all persons dealing with local bodies' funds to give sufficient security for the faithful execution of their duties. Disqualifications. —Eleven members of local authorities automatically forfeited their seats during the year 011 account of being concerned or interested in contracts with the local authorities of which they were members to an extent in excess of the statutory limits. In one instance a Councillor, after being informed by the Audit Office of the fact that, owing to his being interested in a contract with the Council, he was disqualified from further acting as a Councillor, notified that with the object of giving the Audit Office an opportunity of testing its ruling in Court, he had voted on a matter before the Council after receiving notice from Audit of his disqualification, and had therefore acted as a Councillor when in the opinion of the Audit Office he was disqualified. As a principle of considerable importance to the Audit Office was involved, Court proceedings were immediately instituted, and on the case being heard before a Magistrate the Councillor was held to be disqualified; and for taking part in a discussion on a matter before the Council in which he was interested and for acting in the capacity of a Councillor after being disqualified he was fined a total of £25, with costs £12 19s.

Section 90, Public Revenues Act, 1926. Undistributed Receipts. In the, abstract of the revenue and expenditure of the Public Account for the nine months to 31st December, 1929, New Zealand Gazette, 30th January, 1930, page 304, there appears in the summary of balances an item " Suspense Account, £99,036 16s. Id." This item differs from all other items appearing in the summary in one respect —namely, that no account from which this balance is summarized can be found in the body of the abstract. It might be assumed that as no statement of the transactions of the Suspense. Account appears in the abstract such an account does not actually exist, and the appearing of an entry under the heading " Suspense Account " without any explanation as to its nature might well give rise to a suspicion as to its bona fides, but the facts are that such an account, known as " Undistributed Account " or " Suspense Account " is actually kept, but for some reason it has not been customary to show this account in the published statements. The practice is to credit to this Suspense Account all amounts paid into the Public Account at Wellington until information is received as to the accounts to which the receipts should properly be distributed, and on receipt of such information the appropriate accounts are credited, and the Suspense Account is at the same time debited. The balance in the Suspense Account thus represents the amount of receipts which for various reasons it has not been possible to allocate to the relative accounts at the time the books were closed. No Suspense Account balance appears in the statements drawn up at the end of the financial year, as the amount undistributed is transferred to " Deposits, Miscellaneous " to close the Suspense Account. I would suggest that it would be more in accordance with correct accounting methods to show totals of the debits and credits of the Suspense Account in the quarterly and yearly abstract, instead of bringing the balance only of this account into the published accounts. This would enable the balance included in the summary of the quarterly abstracts to be traced to its source, and would at the same time clearly indicate that such balance consists of undistributed revenue, no clue to which exists under the method hitherto followed. It would at the same time render it unnecessary to transfer the undistributed balance to Deposits, Miscellaneous (which is merely another Suspense Account), at the end of each financial year. STATEMENT OF ROYALTIES PAYABLE TO THE CROWN AND UNPAID AT THE 31st MARCH, 1930. Section 91 (2), Public Revenues Act, 1926. Section 9] (2) of the Public Revenues Act, 1926, reads as follows : " The Controller and AuditorGeneral shall include in the report to be prepared by him pursuant to subsection two of section eighty-nine hereof a statement as to all royalties payable to the Crown and for "the. time being unpaid, setting forth in respect of such royalties —(a) The name of the person by whom the same are payable ; (b) the amount payable by each such person ; and (c) the steps (if any) that have been taken to recover the said royalties, and, if no such steps have been taken, the reasons for allowing the said royalties to remain outstanding." In last year's report and that of preceding years it was mentioned that there were many difficulties in the way of preparing a return which would comply with the Act and at the same time avoid, unfairness to individuals whose names are required by law to be published.'

Section 3 (3), Public Revenues Act, 1926. In the Appendix hereto is shown a statement of the items representing moneys and stores to the writing-of! of which the Audit Office has given its concurrence since my previous report. AUDIT OFFICE ORGANIZATION AND STAFF. The number of officers engaged on inspection and examination is 165 as compared with 162 in the preceding year. The increase is in respect of new cadets for training who will in the ordinary course fill vacancies which occur from time to time. In dealing with staff matters it may not be out of place if I explain briefly the subdivision of the staff under the two main but distinct headings of Control and Audit. The former branch of the Audit Office is centred in the Head Office and, as the term implies, the duties of this staff have to do with the controlling of expenditure of Government funds for which the Controller-General is responsible to Parliament. In addition to the functions of control this staff of eleven officers also performs the duty of audit of public accounts as kept by the Treasury and presented to Parliament; Of the remainder of the staff, sixty are engaged in the audit of Treasury and Departmental accounts at headquarters ; ten are attached to those Government Departments where banking accounts separate from the Public Account are kept, such as Post Office, State Advances, &c. ; nine are employed auditing and checking departmental balance-sheets ; thirteen are employed auditing stores in various parts of the Dominion ; and fifty-nine are occupied in connection with the audit of district departmental and local-body accounts. The majority of the latter are stationed in the local centres throughout the Dominion. One officer is also stationed at Samoa and two in London. The officers of the Audit staff require to possess very thorough knowledge of all financial legislation in order to ensure that the directions of Parliament as expressed in legislative enactments shall be rigidly observed. I may also mention that it has for some time been a condition that all officers shall pass the Accountants' Professional Examination before attaining senior rank. These entrants suffer some disability as compared with entrants into other branches of the Service, as they are barred from promotion beyond a certain stage in the classification list unless they shall have passed such examination. The result of these conditions is that the Audit staff is becoming more efficient as time goes on. The work during the past year has been very satisfactorily carried out, although in many instances in the face of considerable difficulties. G. F. C. Campbell, Controller and Auditor-General.
