If, from these the sources or supposed sources
of revenue here in question proposed to be transferred to the Police Fund any thing is at present
extracted by individuals on the score of fees
of office, an annual indemnification to the amount of the
average annual value of the incom emoluments thus
derived, would of course be to be charged to on the Police
Fund during the lives of the present occupants of the
respective offices: but the charge on this score does
not threaten to be very heavy. From fines and
forfeitures levied or which ought to be levied on conviction
before Magistrates, nothing appears to be
derived to the revenue either to the Revenue or
to any officer of the Revenue - it not appearing by
"the view of the Estreats that such fines and forfeitures
"are included therein, there is too much reason to fear
"they have not been, in many instances certified by
"the Magistrates at the Quarter Sessions and it may
"be doubtful whether the Surveyor General of the Green
"Wax has sufficient means of knowing what fines
"and forfetures of this kind accrue, and whether there
"is any compulsory Method to oblige the Justices to
"certify them at the Quarter Sessions, and to pay
"them into the hands of the Sheriff, which seems
"the only course of such fines and forfeitures getting
"into the Exchequer." .23rd Rep. of Committee
of Finance
