i 274. All vouchers will contain full particulars of each service, such as dates, numbers, quantities, dis- tances, and rates, so as to enable them to be checked without reference to any other document. 275. The signature of the head of a department certifies to the accuracy of every detail on the voucher. He will therefore be held responsible that the services specified have been duly performed, that the prices charged are either according to contracts or approved scales, or fair and reasonable according to current local rates, that authority has been obtained as quoted, that the computations and castings have been verified and are arithmetically correct, and that the persons named in the vouchers are those entitled to receive payment. 276. When supplies are furnished or work done under agreement or contract, there will be attached to the voucher a certificate that the payments are in accordance with the terms of the contract or agree- ment, that, as regards supplies, the articles have been received, and, in the case of work, that it has been properly done. In the case of a payment on account no more will be claimed than the cost of the work certified to have been performed. When a deduction 18 made from the amount payable on a contract in respect of a penalty or fine, the net sum only will be paid. 277. In cases where public officers present claims for small payments made by them, sub-vouchers, in the shape of actual receipts, must be produced whenever practicable. When sub-vouchers cannot be obtained the officer will certify that the charges have been incurred solely upon the public service and actually paid by him. 278. Whenever possible payment of wages will be made by an officer of the Treasury and witnessed by another public officer or other responsible person
