Commonwealth act
This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
This Act authorises a $426,018,000 supplementary appropriation for the 1984–85 financial year, giving the government extra spending power beyond the main budget—mainly for Defence, Veterans’ Affairs, Foreign Affairs and other departments. The funding is treated as available from 1 July 1984 despite later assent, and the Act updates a technical name change for ACT health authorities.
