Regulations for His Majesty's Colonial Services. CORRECTIONS. For Regulations 281 and 282 substitute :— 281.—(1) When the annual Estimates have been passed by the Legislature and approved by the Secretary of State, and the Appropriation Law allowed by His Majesty, the expenditure of the year must be held to be definitely limited and arranged. Should any further disbursements on account of the service of that year be required, which could not have been foreseen, cannot be postponed with- out detriment to the public Service, and cannot appropri- ately be charged to an existing sub-head of the Estimates or will cause any excess thereon, approval by the Legislature and the Secretary of State of the necessary additional pro- vision for such disbursements will be sought in the following manner : — (a) Where the provision for the supplementary ex- penditure is not in excess of an amount fixed by the Secretary of State in the case of the individual Colony, and the supplementary expenditure is not of such a nature as to raise some question of principle or involve a breach of some regulation or some previous ruling by the Secretary of State, the Governor may on his personal responsibility give his sanction to such supplementary expenditure being incurred, subject to the inclusion of the amount of such provision in a Schedule of additional provision for the quarter (or such shorter period as may be adopted in the case of the individual Colony) in which such sanction was given. (b) In all other cases, the Governor will, at the earliest possible opportunity and if practicable before any expenditure is incurred, submit an estimate of the supplementary expenditure separately to the Legislature and the Secretary of State and obtain their approval of it. ‘The amount of the provision so approved will he included in the next Schedule of the year. (¢) The Schedule for the quarter (or other shorter period) will thus include under Heads and Sub-heads all provision for expenditure in addition to that provided for in the Estimates or in previous Schedules for the year, which has during that period been approved by the Legislature and the Secretary of State or has been authorized bv the Governor in anticipation of the approval of the Legislature and the Secretary of State. Tt will be despatched to the Secretary of State not later than one month after the close of the period to which it relates, but in any case before the end of the financial vear. In the event of the Legislature not having dealt with it when it is despatched to the Secre- tary of State, the resolution of the Legislature upon it will be reported to the Secretary of State subsequently ag soon as possible. (2) If after the close of the financial year it is found that supplementary expenditure has occurred during that year which has not been included in any Schedule, and the Governor considers that such expenditure should be admitted as a charge to public funds, he will as soon as submit a statement of such expenditure to the Legislature and the Secretary of State for their approval of its being so charged. 282. If the supplementary expenditure causes an Excess on a Head, such Excess should ultimately be covered by = Supplementary Appropriation Law.
