I have the honour to state that at the end of
last month the Treasury balance in coins, currency notes and
stamps was
*Cash Balances in Single and Double )
Lock and Sub-Treasuries. Bs. 1,61,725-8-10)Rs*360,843-0-10,
♦Postage and Service, Judicial and ) exclusive of
Kon-Judicial and Insurance )
Stamps. 1,99,117-8- 0) the Reserve
- — ) Currency Chest
which is Rs. 37,44,000/-, and I shall be glad to know what
will be the position in respect of the normal cash balances
when the transfer takes place next April#
As Indian currency will continue to be used, I
suggest, subject to the approval of the Colonial Office,
that the money be retained as an advance or loan to assist
the new Colony to adjust its finances during the period
of transition. The issue of new postage and other stamps
will be available fron April next, and I suggest that the
stock of Indian stemps which will not be in use be
returned to the Stemp Store Department at Nasik and its
value adjusted against the accounts of the Aden Treasury.
I shall be grateful if I may be informed of the
views of Government of India on these points
