Commonwealth act
This Act has been repealed and is no longer in force. It is retained for historical reference.
This supplementary Appropriation Bill No. 3 provides an extra $609.8 million for the 1988–89 financial year, funding 18 departments—largest shares to Defence (~$241m), Industry, Administrative Services and Transport—and prevents the government running out of cash before 30 June 1989. It also corrects technical errors in earlier budget laws (printing description, health payment categorisation and a date limit on currency swap agreements).
