10.6.5 Change the Custodian of a Change Fund
Policy Statement
Before changing the custodian of a Change Fund, confirm the fund by counting the cash and verifying it with both the current and new custodians present. The current custodian remains responsible for the fund until verification is performed, and the new custodian assumes his or her duties.
Procedure
To change the custodian of a Change Fund:
- The new custodian submits the Change Custodian form. The submission of the form generates an automatic email to the unit head, supervisor, or delegate who must reply indicating whether they approve the custodian change.
- After submitting the Change Custodian form, the current and new custodians complete the Change Fund Verification form together. This form is used to verify the amount of the Change Fund at the time a change of custodian occurs. A change of custodian will not be authorized until a Change Fund Verification form is completed. Keep a copy of the Change Fund Verification form in your unit's files.
If the current custodian is unavailable due to an emergency, the new custodian must still count the money and verify the Change Fund but must do so in the presence of the unit head, supervisor, or delegate.
- The new custodian must complete .
