L, The Federation of Rhodesia a.'c.d Nya aa l and is a Federati.on of the three territoriec of SGut28~n Rhodeoic, Nort~8rn Rhodesia and Nyasaland.
The Federal Go-.rermnent is respol),.i blc for defence, external affairs, health, some educational services and most economic servicv.s. The
Territorial Governments are r2sponsible for all other functions. Broadly speaking exponditure is equally divided botween federal and territorial functions~ T~I.8l~G are, t>'3,:""Gfo:CG s at all times four governments to he

assistance for the preparation of analysis sheets and for assisting with the considerable volume of arithmetic involved.
5. All four governments have fiscal years ending in June and as a consequence the preparation of calendar year figures involves a complete economic-functional analysis for each government for a financial year from 1st July - 30th June and another analysis for the first six months of that same fiscal year i.e. 1st July - 31st December. Simple arithmetio provides figures for the second half of the fiscal "'ear i.e. the eix month period January - June. These results are then added to the July-December analysis of the ensuing fiscal year to provide a calendar year total. A formidable task oomplicated in many instances by the writing baok of some expenditures and the re-allocation of other expenditures consequent upon a full audit at the end of the fiscal year.
6. The method of presentation of the analysis was determined by
printing problems b~t,to show that it is quite feasible to produce a format similar to that shown on page 159 of the Manual for Economic and Functional Classification of Government Transactions the year 1960 has been re-arranged in this way for the purposes of this Conference. It was not possible
however to achieve complete uniformity with the table in the Manual and the reasons for not being able to do so will be touched upon later in this paper.
7. In common with Government eVerywhere the four governments in the Federation prepared, before the beginning of each new fiscal year, their Estimates of Revenue, and Expenditure. These Estimates form the starting point for the eoonomic-functional analysis of the accounts. All items listed in these, Estimates are coded - the code list is attached to this paper - and when July-December and July-June information of actual revenue and expenditure become available each actual item is coded as in the
Estimates and transferred to analysis sheets.
8. The analysis of the accounts of government enterprises and extra- bUdgetary general government agencies cannot be dealt with in thie way as it is only possible at the present moment to have access to these accounts When they appear in the Auditor-General's Reports published some 5-8 months
after the end of the fisoal year. A oopy of the analysis sheets used in the economio classification or these acoounts is atta-ched to this paper.
9. In the Federation of Rhodosia and Nyasaland a very determined
.'- .
effort has been made to present an analysis of Government Acoounts using the oross olassification mettod suggested in the United Nations Manual.
S'he Manual givr3s a very thorough treatment of most aspeots of the
classifioatiol~"of government accounts and it has proved to be a valuable guide in the analysis produced for the Federation but it has un~uestionably
a number of important limitations. These are ,- (1) it is too long and detailed;
(2) it does not bivD sufficient attention to the practical difficul~i8s
of extracting all the detail provided for or indioate the reasons behind provision for so muoh detail;
(3) it tends to establish an optimum analysis to meet a wide range of contingencios rather than to indicate mdm.mum r-e qui r-emerrt sj
(4)
the imputed transaotions inoorporated in the olassifioation give rise to serious praotical problems some of whioh are not yet overoome in more advanced countries;(5) the funotional classification provides for the olassification of related administrative expenditure in the functional groups and not under the genoral heading of general administration,
(6) the groups "other sooial services" and "other community services"
appear to be too wido and heterogeneous1 for example, housing is inclUded in the former, whilst a number of large scale integrated development projocts would be classified under the latter;
(7) the implioation that the transaotions of general government agenoies
and even of goverr~ont enterprises should be converted from a
cash basis to an acoruals basis appears to ignore completely the practical problems involved.
10. Despite these limitations the Manual makes a valuable oontribution to the problem of classification of government transactions but as a praotical guide for the use of statistioians working on the subject it possibly presents as many problems as it solves largely due to its detailed approach and oomplexity,
11, Since the preparation of a·general·government account is one of the first prioritiec; in developing a set of national ·accounts, it is
suggested that early agreement be reach"d on a minimum economic functional classification scheme suitable for African countries. Such a scheme would ollsure that the efforts of statisticians would not be dispersed in
exploTatory studios at present necessary.to produ~e the current analysis of general government accounts as advooated by the Manual.
