About this statute

This section says terms generally keep the meanings given in section 1 of the Public Finance Management Act, and it defines several budget-related terms. This section gives definitions and says certain early spending from the National Revenue Fund must comply with the Public Finance Management Act and be recorded in the Schedule 2 vote structure. The Minister may impose conditions on certain Schedule 2 appropriations and stop allocations until conditions are met. The National Treasury may also approve use of savings for specified purposes, and must report stopped amounts in its next quarterly report. Budget allocations listed in Schedule 2 must be used only for the stated purpose unless Parliament changes that purpose by law. The Minister may make regulations by notice in the Gazette about matters that can be prescribed under the Act and related administrative or procedural matters needed to implement or administer it.
