457. Indeed the Collectors should not retain Cash in their hands, it should be paid regularly to the Treasury.

2. The Monthly Cash Accounts and Vouchers of the Treasurer (including those of his Sub-Accountants) are not sent to the local Auditor, as might be inferred from the wording of the proposed Despatch, but direct to the Comptroller and Auditor General in this Country.

3. The Comptroller and Auditor General would suggest the substitution of the word "Examining" for "Audit" Branch as applied to the Officers of the Treasury entrusted with the duties adverted to.

I have the honor to be,

Sir,

Your obedient servant,

F. Phillips
