About this statute

This section says certain terms in the Act must have the meanings already assigned to them in other specified finance laws and instruments, unless the context shows otherwise. This provision defines several budget and finance terms used in the Act and says the listed appropriations are set out in the Schedule. Money specially appropriated in the Schedule may be used only for the stated purpose unless Parliament changes the amount or purpose by Act. The Minister may approve certain expenditure and use of unspent funds only within stated conditions and caps, and some approvals must be reported in the National Treasury’s next quarterly report. The Minister may approve certain unspent funds for specified purposes before the Appropriation Act starts, but the spending must not delay services and must be reported in the next quarterly National Treasury report.
