Treasury Accountant:

S. E. D. WESTLEY, A.I.M.T.A.

7.62. The number of accounts issued for water consumed during the year rose by 28% on the previous year due largely to the policy of individually metering all newly constructed flats, including Resettlement estates.

7.64. Demand Notes for nearly 48,000 water deposits to the value of $4.6 M were issued during the year and at the end of the year the total value of deposits held exceeded $25 M.
