It has been reported that many Clerks of Courts/Accountable

Funds as provided under Circular No. 50-95 dated October 11, 1995,
notwithstanding repeated reminders and follow-up letters to this effect.

T)ie Commission on Audit, in their Audit Observation Memoranda,

need to submit this requirement.

For the purpose of periodic reconciliation of our books of
accounts and to have an update of existing deposits of all fiduciary
fund collections with the Land Bank of the Philippines and the
Provincial/City/Municipal Treasurers, all Clerks of Courts/Accountable
Officers are required to submit the complete lists of all unwithdrawn
fiduciary funds deposited with the Land Bank of the Philippines and in
the Provincial, City and Municipal Treasurers. Submission of the lists
must be made on or before 30 April 2004 using the attached format.

Failure to comply with said requirement will mean the withholding of salary and benefits.

For strict compliance.
