PUBLIC ACCOUNTS AND CHARGES ACT 1891 - SECT 2

Issues from Exchequer and appropriations in aid.

2. Whereas it is expedient to give statutory authority to the practice with
respect to issues from the Exchequer and appropriations in aid

(1)Where an Act authorises any sum to be issued out of the Consolidated Fund
of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland towards making good the
supply granted to Her Majesty for the service of any year, every sum issued in
pursuance of that Act shall be applied towards making good the supply so
granted at the time of such issue.

(2)All money directed by or in pursuance of any Act (whether passed before or
after this Act), or by the Treasury, to be applied as an appropriation in aid
of money provided by Parliament for any purpose, shall be deemed to be money
provided by Parliament for that purpose, and shall, without being paid into
the Exchequer, be applied, audited, and dealt with accordingly, and so far as
it is not in fact so applied shall be paid into the Exchequer.

(3)Where any fee, penalty, proceeds of sale, or other money of the nature of
an extra receipt is, by virtue of this Act, or of any other Act (whether
passed before or after this Act), or otherwise, payable into the Exchequer,
the Treasury may by a minute to be laid before Parliament direct that the
whole or any specified part thereof shall be applied as an appropriation in
aid of money provided by Parliament for the service mentioned in the minute.
