Auditor-General's Report
may remark
Export at that by my Despatch
It last
no 214 of the 12th August in
which I sanctioned the supplementary
Appropriation Ordinance for 1895;
by implication I gave sufficient authority for
meeting excesses under
certain Sub-heads out of savings
under other Sub-heads of
the
same vote, as set out in the
Supplementary
Estimates for 1895,
which were sent home with the above
5. I request
that
you will inform
me why the expenditure of $900
on Salisbury Road, Kowloon, was
not included in that Appropriation
mentioned Bill
& Ordinance; if
this
expenditure has not been otherwise
legalised
a further Ordinance
should be introduced to cover
it.

6. With regard to paragraph 5+
the Report I notice that the item
for the Queen's Statue appears to
have been transferred and directed
in my Despatch No 115 of the 26th
May last from
'Public Works
to Loan' on the figured
page 8 of the Supplementary
Estimates for 1895, as the amount
charged to Loan is given at $183,186.27, instead of
previously $186,970.87 as given in
the Financial returns for by
you in your Despatch No 92
the 14th April last
