Grants to local authorities.

29.(1) For the purposes of this Part of this Act the Ministry [after
consultation with the Board] may make to a local authority... a grant of such
portion of the capital expenditure reasonably and properly incurred by the
local authority in connection with any scheme duly approved under section
twenty-six of this Act as the Ministry with the approval of the Ministry of
Finance may think proper....

(2) In determining whether to give any grant under this section and in
considering the extent of any grant so to be given by it to any
local authority the Ministry shall have regard to

(a)the extent to which the scheme for the purposes of which the grant is given
will promote the development of tourist traffic or encourage persons residing
elsewhere to visit within the area of the local authority;

(b)the revenue, if any, likely to be derived by the local authority as a
result of the scheme; and

(c)the circumstances which in the opinion of the Ministry render it desirable
to carry out the scheme.

(3) Grants payable under this section shall be paid at such times in such
manner and subject to such conditions as the Ministry with the approval of the
Ministry of Finance may determine.

(4) No grant shall be paid under this section in respect of any matter in any
case where a payment out of moneys provided by Parliament [or out of the
Consolidated Fund] is payable in respect of that matter under any other
enactment.

[(5) There shall be charged on and issued out of the Consolidated Fund or (if
the Ministry of Finance so directs) out of moneys provided by Parliament, the
sums required to defray grants made under sub-section (1) of this section; so,
however, that the aggregate of the sums to be charged on and issued out of the
Consolidated Fund under this sub-section shall not unless and until Parliament
otherwise determines exceed [three million five hundred thousand pounds].

(6) The Ministry of Finance may borrow money for the purpose of providing for
issues out of the Consolidated Fund under the last preceding sub-section.

(7) Moneys borrowed under the last preceding sub-section shall be repaid
within any period or periods not exceeding fifteen years from the date of
borrowing, and provision for such repayment may be made out of moneys provided
by Parliament.]
