Handing over of Council stores

When an Officer takes over charge of a store or an office involving custody of Council stores or other property, he shall, together with the Officer whom he is relieving, satisfy himself that the balances shown in the store ledger or inventory agree with the articles on hand. A certificate that the stores or other property have been handed over and taken over, together with a list of any surpluses or deficiencies, shall be signed by both Officers and forwarded to the Town Administrator. The Town Administrator shall report any surpluses or deficiencies to the mayor and shall send a copy of the report to the Minister and the Auditor General.
