### sec.51 Dealing with moneys earned on investment
If moneys for an investment were paid out of the treasury offset bank account, moneys received from the investment must be paid into the treasury offset bank account and dealt with as follows—
the moneys necessary to fully recoup the treasury offset bank account for the amount paid from it for the investment must be kept in the treasury offset bank account but may be used for a further investment;
as soon as practicable after the moneys received from the investment are paid into the treasury offset bank account, the Treasurer must identify the amount (the investment earnings ) that exceeds the moneys recouped into the treasury offset bank account.
To the extent the moneys for the investment were, under an arrangement with the Treasurer, attributable to a departmental financial-institution account, the Treasurer must—
declare an amount from the investment earnings to be paid to the department as interest (the departmental interest ); and
arrange for the payment of the departmental interest from the treasury offset bank account into the departmental financial institution account.
The Treasurer must arrange for the payment of the balance of the investment earnings, less departmental interest to be paid under subsection (2) , into a departmental financial institution account of the treasury department.
If moneys for an investment were paid out of the Treasurer’s consolidated fund bank account, moneys received from the investment must be paid into the account.
If moneys for an investment were paid out of a departmental financial institution account, other than the treasury offset bank account, moneys received from the investment must be paid into—
for an investment made for the purpose of a fund for which a special purpose account must be established under section 69A —a special purpose financial institution account established for the special purpose account; or
otherwise—the departmental financial institution account from which the moneys for the investment were paid.
