R. N. Jones, Under-Secretary, Native Department. I hereby certify that the Statement of Receipts and Payments, Income and Expenditure Accounts, Appropriation Accounts, and Balance-sheet have been compared with the audited Accounts and Balance-sheets of the respective Maori Land Boards, and correctly state the position as disclosed thereby. The certificate on the Accounts and Balance-sheet of the Tairawhiti Maori Land Board is subject to the following : Comment.— The Audit Office is unable to certify to the adequacy of securities owing to the absence of information as to the value of the lands secured.
