74480 Cat. No. 95 5230 8 ISBN 0644 436271

(2) The Consolidated Revenue Fund is appropriated as necessary for the purposes of subsection (1).

Payments to States

4.(1) In this section and in determinations for the purposes of paragraph (2)(a) or (b):

"Appropriation Act" means an Act appropriating money for expenditure in respect of a financial year.

(2) Payments out of such money appropriated by this Act as is specified in the Division, or unit of a Division, in Schedule 2 that is specified in column 2 of an item in Schedule 1, being payments that are made to a State for a purpose specified in column 3 of that item, must be made:

  1. (a)

    on the terms and conditions (if any) that are from time to time determined, in writing, for the purposes of Appropriation Acts, by the Minister specified in column 4 of that item, as being terms and conditions applicable to payments under those Acts to a State for that purpose; and

  2. (b)

    in the amounts and at the times that are determined, in writing, by the Minister specified in column 5 of that item.

(3) Payments to a State out of such of the money appropriated by this Act as is specified in Division 977 in Schedule 2 must be made in the amounts and at the times determined by the Treasurer.

(4) Nothing in this section limits, by implication, the power of the Commonwealth to make payments to a Territory, a local Government body, a body corporate, an organisation or an individual for any purposes for which money is appropriated under Appropriation Acts:

(a) on the terms and conditions; and

(b) in the amounts and at the times;

that the Commonwealth determines.

Money appropriated for a program

5. If money is appropriated by this Act for a particular program, that money is taken to be appropriated for:

(a) the purpose of payments (including advances) under Acts administered as part of the program; and

(b) any other purposes of the program.

Accounting errors etc. may be corrected after close of financial year

6. The fact that the appropriation of an amount under this Act ceases (because of section 36 of the Audit Act 1901) to have effect at the end of 30 June 1996 does not prevent the Minister from taking action after that day:

  1. (a)

    to correct errors or mispostings in the official accounting records of the Commonwealth; or

  2. (b)

    to balance the Consolidated Revenue Fund, the Trust Fund or the Loan Fund;

if the action does not result in an amount being debited from one of those Funds otherwise than for the purpose of being credited to another of those Funds.

PART 2 ‑ SPECIAL APPLICATION OF ACT

    the Financial Management and Accountability Act 1996;

"item" means an item, subdivision or Division in Schedule 2;
