GENERAL.

80. As already reported to you (Letter of 12th February 1981), in my evidence before the Retrenchment Committee I stated that after a preliminary scrutiny of the departmental accounts of the Colony I was of opinion that in many directions the system of accounting was unnecessarily laborious in procedure. Further personal examination of accounts has not caused me to alter my views and I consider that in several directions, for example, by the introduction of a few sub-accountants, by a reduction in the number of bank accounts and by a general simplification of system much clerical labour and multiplication of entries could be saved which would not in any way effect the control or accuracy of the accounts.

22nd July, 1931.

P. L. COLLISSON,

Auditor.
