The Board of Survey appointed under Colonial Regulation 311 found in the Treasury a total sum, in cash and cheques of $385,466.41 (of which $189,664.07 was/incompletely signed cheques, $192,417.65 in completely signed cheques and $3,384.69 in cash) representing disbursements in respect of 1933 not yet completed.
The position with regard to this asset is therefore the same as reported in previous years.

length and one aspect of it, the Departmental Bank
Accounts, was the subject of a conference in London
in November last between the Director of Colonial
Audit, the Treasurer and the Auditor, at which
the local difficulties, some of them even said to be psychological, of making payments during the
year in which they were due were discussed.
