With reference to paragraph 10 of the Report dated 26th April, 1945, of the Committee of Public Accounts on the subject of deficiencies of certain items of Barrack Service Stores and to the relevant paragraph of the minute of the Minister for Finance dated 13th ultimo, I am directed by the Minister for Finance to state that the cash value of the deficient stores has been reassessed at a total figure of £14,735.
