Issue and application of $1 719 603 000

3.(1) The Minister may issue out of the Consolidated Revenue Fund and apply for the services specified in Schedule 2, in respect of the year ending on 30 June 1997, the sum of $1 719 603 000.

(2)

Unless the contrary intention appears in Schedule 2, amounts issued by the Minister under subsection (1) in respect of services described in Schedule 2 as Capital Works and Services may be applied only for purposes of a kind for which money appropriated in respect of services so described in an Act appropriating money (otherwise than by way of interim provision) for expenditure in respect of the year ending on 30 June 1996 could lawfully have been applied.

(3)

Unless the contrary intention appears in Schedule 2, amounts issued by the Minister under subsection (1) in respect of payments to or for the States, the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory may be applied only in making payments of a kind that could lawfully have been made out of money appropriated for payments to or for the States, the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory in an Act appropriating money (otherwise than by way of interim provision) for expenditure in respect of the year ending on 30 June 1996.

(4)

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

(2) Payments out of such of the 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 such terms and conditions (if any) as 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 such Acts to a State for that purpose: and

2. (b)

   in such amounts and at such times as 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 accordance with any determinations of the Treasurer as to the amounts and times of payments.

(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 such terms and conditions; and

2. (b)

   in such amounts and at such times; as the Commonwealth determines.

Money appropriated for a program

5. Money appropriated by this Act for a particular program 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

6. Despite section 36 of the Audit Act 1901, the Minister may take action after 30 June 1997:

1. (a)

   to correct errors or mispostings in the official accounting records of the Commonwealth for the year ending on that day; 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.

Note: Section 36 of the Audit Act 1901 provides that (except in a particular case provided for in that section) every appropriation out of the Consolidated Revenue Fund for the service of a financial year lapses and ceases to have effect at the end of that year (the unspent balance of any appropriated amount lapsing) and that the accounts of the year are then closed.

the item is modified by omitting the reference to the Trust Account and substituting a reference to that component of the Reserved Money Fund.

(5) If:
