It tidies up the government's books by closing a specific funding reserve and returning any leftover money to the general budget, ensuring public funds are held in the standard government account rather than in separate, potentially dormant, reserves."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-act-1997-determination-pursuant-to-subsection-20-4-24-03-199","history":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-act-1997-determination-pursuant-to-subsection-20-4-24-03-199/history","analysis":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-act-1997-determination-pursuant-to-subsection-20-4-24-03-199/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-act-1997-determination-pursuant-to-subsection-20-4-24-03-199/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-act-1997-determination-pursuant-to-subsection-20-4-24-03-199/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/financial-management-and-accountability-act-1997-determination-pursuant-to-subsection-20-4-24-03-199/documents"}}
