Acting under authority of the foregoing orrlcr of Council dated Feb. 9. 1920, in which we wcrcnppolnted a committee to ascertain the actual liabilities. of this Province as therein stated up to an including the 12th clay of August, 1927, and also to ascertain the amount expended upon the roads of this Province between the 1st day of May 1927. and the 1st duy of Septelnbvr 1927. we submit that nftcr having cxumlzlcd the Receipts and Expenditure; ns i shown by the Lcdgers in the various Departments we find as follows: The not debt. of the Province as at August twelfth, i027 amounted to . . . .. .. $2,020,000.69 as pcr statclnent No. 1 and supporting schedules. The total liability accrued due and 1mynble to the said twelfth doy of August. 1927 amounted to . as per statement .No,,2. t 631,462.68 The total liability not accrucdxiue and not pnytxblc as at August twelfth I927 amounted to . . . . . 1,617,971.74 as per statement No. 3. _Tl1c total liability accrued on contracts relating to the several Departments as at August 12th 1927 amounted to . us-per statement No. 4. In the total of other assets. Schedule K. we included the sum oi" $181,126.46 in the statement of the School Supply Branch as at October 15, 1927. ns shown under Schedule F 0, which we nrc obliged to rely on as no inventory was taken and no statement made cs at August 12th. 1927. and 1s not now obtainable. We are of the opinion that tnls statement is somewhat mislead- ing, our information being that about $2,700.00 of the merchandise included in that inventory is unsalable stock. We recommend that the invoice value of this stock be ascertained and this amount written off. We also recommend that a 662.16 commercial and paying basis, while still retaining its advantages to the public. The total amount expended on the roads of this Province between the first clay of May. 1927 and the first day of September, 1927, amounted to $63,264.05. as per statement No. 6. We examined the securities held at the Bank of Montreal to the credit of the sinking funds for the rcdenrptlon of bonds and found that thcsc funds were invested as follows. as per schedule B. Dominion of Canada . $ 42,500.00 Canadian National Railway Bonds . . .. 261900.00 Government of P. E.

We note that Bonds of the Province arc lucid to the credit, of the Sink- ing I-‘und Account to the vnlilc of $59,000.00 Wc recotnmend the cancellation o1 these Bonds. thereby decreasing the trot funded debt of the Province and thus nmkc unnecessary thc semi-annual handling of the coupons. We would also draw your attention to the advisability of , making adequate provision for your Sinking Funds in accordance with the different 1aorlods- for which the Bonds were issued. As the necessity for keeping separate bank accounts for Ordinary and Hlglnrny Ilnprovcmcnt docs not now exist we recommend that the Highway Im- provement account be closed nnrl the bnlnncc cnrrlcd into the Ordinary or‘ general account. OFFICE ACCOMMODATION. In regard to our instructions to report upon the offlcc uccelnuitldntlutl within the the Provincial Building. wc beg to report. as follows: 1. Considerable congestion exists in each of the several Departments occupying offices on the ground floor. At no distant, date it, may become necessary to provide better accommodation for one or luorc branches of the public service. i 2. We Ilnd the Legislative and Dodd Library to bc in urgent need of more space. Only recently n sum in excess of two thousand dollars was receiv- ed as u, bequest for the purchase of new books. but under present conditions it. is impossible to provide additional shelving room. 3. The Department of the Provincial Secretary-Treasurer is located iu the former Executive Council Chamber and more generally known as the Con- federation Room. This we consider an unsatisfactory arrangement, owing to the fact that structural changes necessary to the lay out of a modern business office cannot very well be undertaken. ~ 4. The Confederation Room ls treasured throughout the Dominion. and we venture to express the oplnlon that. the historic associations of that room should bc pmscrved at all costs. 5 Therefore we respectfully gccommend that steps bc taken for tho le quarters. and that, the Provincial ~ Secretary-Treasurer's Department be moved into the room now occupied by the Library. We arc informed that. the sum of $3,738.02 shown to be duo the Province from the Federal Government on account of a Fcdclul grant is ln " ,_ ‘ Alina] ‘ ‘ ' 1n this “ ‘* "‘ be obtained so that the amount can clther be collected or written off. - An investigation should be made by the Treasury Board no to inc nlerltlo, responsibilities und- scrvlces performed by the dlffercn: members of the official staff, with a view to the re-snangcment, of salaries on an equitable All information and explanations required were furnished by your oltl- clals, to whom we, beg to express our appreciation and thanks for the noslst- ance afforded to us by them in their several Departments during the nudlt.
