[21st July 2008]
Whereas the Commons of the United Kingdom in Parliament assembled have resolved to authorise the use of resources and the issue of sums out of the Consolidated Fund towards making good the supply which they have granted to Her Majesty in this Session of Parliament: –
Be it therefore enacted by the Queen´s most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows: –
The use of resources for the service of the year ending with 31st March 2009 is authorised to the amount of £253,036,312,000.
The Treasury may issue out of the Consolidated Fund of the United Kingdom and apply to the service of the year ending with 31st March 2009 the sum of £250,409,641,000.
(1) All the amounts and sums authorised by this Act and the other Act mentioned in Schedule 1 to this Act for the service of the year ending with 31st March 2009, totalling, as is shown in the said Schedule, £447,902,670,000 in amounts of resources authorised for use and £430,086,603,000 in sums authorised for issue from the Consolidated Fund, are appropriated, and shall be deemed to have been appropriated as from the date of the passing of the Acts mentioned in the said Schedule 1, for the services and purposes specified in Schedule 2 to this Act.
(2) Parts 1 to 52, 54 and 55 of Schedule 2 also set out, for the services and purposes specified in those Parts of that Schedule, the limits set for the purposes of section 2 of the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 (c. 20) on the resources applicable as appropriations in aid for the year ending with 31st March 2009.
(3) Those limits shall be deemed to have been in force from 21st April 2008.
(4) A direction given after the passing of this Act for authorising the application of resources as appropriations in aid for the year ending with 31st March 2009–
(a) may, to the extent of any excess proposed in Estimates or in a Statement of Excesses laid before the House of Commons, authorise appropriations in aid in excess of the relevant limit set for the purposes of section 2 of the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 for that year by this Act or a previous Appropriation Act; but
(b) where the limit so set has not, by 12th August following the giving of the direction, been increased by a subsequent Appropriation Act or has by that date been so increased by less than the excess, shall be deemed to have authorised appropriations in aid only up to that limit or, as the case may be, up to that limit as so increased.
(5) Nothing in Schedule 2 limits the amounts which are or may be made applicable, in accordance with any direction, as appropriations in aid of resources for the service of the House of Commons Administration for any year.
(6) The abstracts of Schedule 1 and of Schedule 2 which are annexed to this Act shall have effect as part of this Act.
The enactments mentioned in Schedule 3 are hereby repealed.
