Division and Department Commanders will, through the Inspectors attached to their headquarters, or by details of such other officers within their commands as may best secure the object, provide for the bi-monthly inspections of Disbursing Officers under their orders, required by General Orders No. 45 of 1874. Where Inspector Generals are making inspections of Divisions or Departments under orders from the War Department, the Commanding Generals will be duly notified, when one of the inspections herein required may be omitted. The inspections called for by General Orders No. 45 of 1874 are not necessarily to be performed at definitely specified intervals of two months, or at regularly recurring dates. The duty required by the act of Congress approved April 20, 1874, upon the subject of inspections is deemed to be sufficiently discharged by attaining six inspections per annum, with reasonable intervals of time between any two inspections. The blank inspection reports furnished from the Inspector General's Office are designed for use in inspecting the accounts of the Chiet Disbursing Officers of Divisions and Departments, and of other officers who disburse considerable sums of money. Where the disbursements are small, as at most military posts, the inspections and reports will conform to the requirements of the law above cited, but the specific form of the blank reports will not be required.
