§ III. Treasury Bills.-Funds derived from Imperial Grants in Aid of Locul Revenues.
359. It is to be observed that sums voted by Parliament in respect of any financial year are not intended to defray the charges which become due in that year, but to meet such charges only
as shall actually come in course of payment within the year. It is desirable, however, that the charges becoming due in each year should, as far as practicable, be delrayed from the Votes for the same year.
With this view it will be
financial year
proper that all Salaries and other authorised charges up to the end of any should be paid before the close of the year, unless there be some special reason to the contrary.
360. Bills for Salaries and Allowances inust not be drawn for broken periods of quarters, except in cases where the services of the officer have commenced or ceased within the quarter : and in such cases Certificates should be trans- mitted, showing the date from which and up to which the Salary or Allowance may be payable.
360a. Governors will not be at liberty, without special authority, to draw funds before the com- mencement of a financial year, on the credit of any proposed Parliamentary Vote for that year.
3606. All Bills on the credit of the Parlia- mentary Grants-in-Aid should be drawn on the Paymaster-General. When the service is of an ordinary description, they should be drawn at ten days' sight; but in every case of an unusual character. they should be at thirty days' sight. They should bear a serial number for each financial year. Salary Bills should be in the
form prescribed in Appendix 13, with the addition of this serial number. All other Bills should distinctly specify the service and the particular Parliamentary Grant in respect of which they are drawn; and whenever the service is of an unusual character the Bills should also show the date and description of the document conveying the authority for the expenditure.
