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

Payment to Dr Lawrence not to exceed a certain amount

4.(1) Payments out of such money appropriated by this Act as is specified in subsection (2) must not exceed the amount of the legal costs of Dr C. Lawrence in relation to the Marks Royal Commission remaining after deduction from those costs of any amount paid or payable to or for Dr Lawrence by the Government of Western Australia for legal costs in relation to the Marks Royal Commission.

(2) The money referred to in subsection (1) is as specified in Division 807, OTHER SERVICES, item 02, Dr C. Lawrence — legal costs in relation to the Marks Royal Commission, being $556 463.

(3) In this Act, any reference, however expressed, to legal costs of Dr C. Lawrence in relation to the Marks Royal Commission does not include legal costs (however constituted) of Dr C. Lawrence for or in relation to proceedings in a court in relation to the Marks Royal Commission.

Payments to States

5. (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 and includes an Act appropriating money, by way of interim provision, for such expenditure.

(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:

  1. (a)

    on the terms and conditions; and

  2. (b)

    in the amounts and at the times;

that the Commonwealth determines.

Money appropriated for a program

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

  1. (a)

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

  2. (b)

    any other purposes of the program.

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

7. 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
