MOST GRACIOUS SOVEREIGN—We, Your Majesty’s most dutiful and loyal subjects, the House of Representatives of New Zealand in Parliament assembled, towards making good the Supply which we have cheerfully granted to Your Majesty in this Session of Parliament, have resolved to grant unto Your Majesty the sums hereinafter mentioned, and do therefore most humbly beseech Your Majesty that it may be enacted, and be it enacted by the General Assembly of New Zealand in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:—

1 Short Title.

The Short Title of this Act shall be “The Appropriation Act, 1877.”

2 Grant of £2,301,642 18s. 1d., and fees.

The expenses of the Department of the Surveyor-General to the thirty-first day of December next shall be charged upon the Land Fund arising within the several provincial districts, in proportion to the amount expended for surveys in each district up to that date.

(2.)

One-third amongst the Councils of the several counties or parts of counties lying to the south of the said river, in the proportions fixed by subsection two of section nine of “The Financial Arrangements Act, 1876.”

All such moneys may be expended by the Council of any county in any part of the provincial district in such proportion as it thinks fit.

The Colonial Treasurer may issue and pay out of the Consolidated Fund any sum not exceeding in the whole the sum of one hundred and twenty-five thousand pounds during the current financial year, to provide for the purchase of stores and the cost of maintaining the workshops for the working of the railways mentioned in the Schedule B hereto annexed: Provided that he shall from time to time charge the whole of the money so issued against the several railways mentioned in the said Schedule, in the proportion in which such stores and the work executed in such workshops are used upon each such railway, and provided also that each vote for the working of such railways, as set forth in Schedule B, shall not be thereby exceeded.

5 Indemnity.

And whereas the Colonial Treasurer has, under the authority of the second section of “The Public Revenues Act, 1876,” issued from the Public Account, during the year ending the thirtieth day of June, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-seven, moneys in excess of or without the appropriation of Parliament, amounting in the whole to the sum of one hundred and twenty-seven thousand six hundred and forty pounds five shillings and elevenpence, and has applied the said sum to the several purposes and services mentioned in the Schedule G hereto annexed: Be it enacted that the application of the said sum is hereby sanctioned.

6 Provision for salaries in Public Trust Office.

And whereas by the eleventh section of “The Public Trust Office Act, 1872,” it is enacted that the salary of the Public Trustee and of the other officers and servants in the Public Trust Office shall be such as shall be fixed by the General Assembly: Be it enacted that the said salaries for the year ending the thirtieth day of June, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-eight, shall be those mentioned in Schedule H hereto annexed.

7 Moneys payable for works chargeable as provincial liabilities.

The moneys payable under this Act for works chargeable as provincial liabilities may be paid over to such local governing bodies as the Minister for Public Works may determine, upon such terms and conditions as shall be agreed upon between the said Minister and any such local governing body; and the Colonial Treasurer shall make all such payments in accordance with any such agreement.

8 Moneys paid on behalf of local governing bodies may be charged to Suspense Account.

Whenever, under the authority of this or any other Act, any sum of money has been paid on behalf or at the request of any local governing body, the Colonial Treasurer may charge the same to a suspense or advance account within the Consolidated Fund, and every such sum of money so paid may from time to time be deducted from any subsidies or moneys accruing or payable to any such body.

9 After 31st December next balances to be transferred to and moneys issued out of Consolidated Fund.

At the close of business on the thirty-first day of December, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-seven, the Colonial Treasurer shall transfer to the Consolidated Fund the balances standing to the credit of the several accounts which, by the operation of “The Public Revenues Act, 1877,” become thereafter part of the Consolidated Fund; and the several sums appropriated by this Act and payable out of such several accounts shall, after the said thirty-first day of December, be paid out of the Consolidated Fund.

10 Schedules included in the Act.

The Schedules annexed hereto, with the notes, if any, to such Schedules, shall be deemed to be part of this Act, in the same manner as if they had been contained in the body hereof.
