Explanation:

1, 2 and 3

The Governor did not retain complete control over the finances. The reforms introduced a system of dyarchy, where there was a division of powers and responsibilities between the central and provincial governments, including financial powers.

Dyarchy was introduced in the provinces, allowing for the division of powers between elected ministers and executive councillors.

The Central Government did not have unrestricted control over the provincial governments. The reforms aimed to transfer some legislative and executive powers to the provinces.

Therefore, all three statements are correct.
