8 207. Heads of departments, sub-accountants and all accounting officers are personally and pecuniarily responsible for the due performance of the financial duties of their departments or offices, for the proper collection and custody of all public money receivable by them, and for any inaccuracies in the accounts rendered by them or under their authority. The responsibility of the Auditor for checking and reporting any shortcomings in connection with the public accounts or finances does not absolve any officer from his responsibility for complying, or securing compliance, with instructions within the scope of his own authority. No officer will be relieved from any portion of his responsibility should he depute to his subordinates the performance of duties which he should have performed himself. 208. The Auditor and his deputies are at all times entitled to have access to all books, records, or returns relating to accounts, and all accounting officers will give them every facility for inspecting such documents. 209. It is the duty of all accounting officers promptly to reply to any queries addressed to them by the Auditor, giving fully the particulars or information desired. B. The Estimates. 210. Annual Estimates of the revenue and expen- diture of a Colony will be submitted by the Colonial Secretary to the Governor at such a date as will admit of their consideration by the Legislature, their transmission to the Secretary of State, and the receipt of his reply by post, before the beginning of the year to which the Estimates relate. Where local circumstances render this impossible, the Estimates should be transmitted so as to reach the Secretary of State as soon as possible, and in any case before the beginning of the vear.
