NO LOOP-HOLES IN RAILWAY ACCOUNTS
CHECK ON FRAUD CHRISTCHURCH, To-day. of the Railway Department are at present making an examination of the accounts of the maintenance branches at many of the offices throughout the Dominion. This is an outcome of the recent cases at Christchurch, where two clerks were each sentenced to four years’ imprisonment on charges of defrauding the department of £6,000. These two young men had been defrauding the department systematically from 1922 to 1927. Recently departmental officers have been working from station to station and systematically examining accounts. Apparently no loop-holes are to be left in the system in future.
