Total Surplus to be Surrendered. £1,701 13

EXPLANATION of the Causes of Variation between Expenditure and Grant.

-Saving due to vacancies caused by death and transfer, and to retirements owing to ill-health. The cost of travelling and removal expenses in connection with the Audit of the Army and Navy Accounts was less than was anticipated.

C. No question arose which necessitated reference to a Legal Adviser. Provision for this Service will be discontinued after 1906-7.

D.-Over-Estimate. The Estimate will be found reduced in 1907-8.

E. This Surplus consists of 50l. received from the Board of Trade for the Audit of the Accounts of the Imperial Institute (a new Service which was not provided for), and an additional sum of 401. received from the Crown Agents for the Colonies for an extension of the Audit of their Accounts.

The Surplus of 2,6821. 4s. 7d., shown on the Account of the Vote "Exchequer and Audit Department,' for the year ended 31st March 1905, has been surrendered.

EXPLANATION of the Causes of Variation between Expenditure and Grant.

A. This excess is caused by the appointment of a second Assistant Registrar, for whom it was not possible to make provision in the Estimate prepared at beginning of year.

C.-This excess is caused by the number of Savings Bank Awards in Ireland being greater than estimated.

D.-This variation is owing to the amount paid for advertisements of Cancelling not reaching the estimate; the large amount recovered by the Office for Expenses of Prosecution, and the small amount expended for prosecutions in Ireland.
