PUBLIC ACCOUNT CASH BALANCE INVESTMENT ACCOUNT.

A. D. Park, Secretary to the Treasury. The Treasury, Wellington, • G. C. Rodda, 30th May, 1934. Assistant Secretary to the Treasury. The foregoing accounts have been examined and found correct with the following exceptions : (1) The credit balances amounting to £19,882,839 19s. 7d. shown as " Cash " in the various accounts which constitute the Public Account are overstated by an aggregate amount of £19,379,000. The latter amount represents sums paid from the Public Account by way of investment and was not held as cash in the Public Account; (2) the total balances shown in the various accounts amounting to £24,144,831 13s. 3d. are overstated, owing to transfers made between accounts by way of investment having been used to increase the total balance of the borrowing account without decreasing the total balance of the lending account. Note. —This certificate is given subject to the final audit of certain vouchers which, owing to the post-audit system provided for by the Public Revenues Act, 1926, cannot be completely audited before the date at which the abstract is required by the Act to be certified. G. F. C. Campbell, Controller and Auditor-General, 31st May, 1934. Theastjby Note. 1.

The cash balance of the lending account is decreased by the amount of the investment, but the total balance consisting of cash and investments is not affected. A. D. Park, Secretary to the Treasury.
