Money Bills

(1) A Bill is a money Bill if it— (a) appropriates money; (b) imposes provincial taxes, levies, duties or surcharges; (c) abolishes or reduces, or grants exemptions from, any provincial taxes, levies, duties or surcharges; or (d) authorises direct charges against a Provincial Revenue Fund. (2) A money Bill may not deal with any other matter except— (a) a subordinate matter incidental to the appropriation of money; (b) the imposition, abolition or reduction of provincial taxes, levies, duties or surcharges; (c) the granting of exemption from provincial taxes, levies, duties or surcharges; or (d) the authorisation of direct charges against a Provincial Revenue Fund. (3) A provincial Act must provide for a procedure by which the province’s legislature may amend a money Bill. [S. 120 substituted by s. 3 of the Constitution Seventh Amendment Act of 2001.]
