Questions and Short Answer
Is it possible for a member, who is not a Minister, to move an amendment to the Appropriation Bill 1995 that would have the effect of transferring funds from Division 250 - Treasurers Advance to one of the Divisions relating to education (either 180 or 190) or would this infringe section 65 of the Australian Capital Territory (Self-Government) Act 1988?
It would not be possible for a member, who is not a Minister, to move an amendment to the Appropriation Bill 1995 that would have the effect of transferring funds from the Treasurer's advance to one of the education appropriation units. It would be a breach of section 65.
Would a transfer of funds within a Division, as opposed to between Divisions, infringe section 65?
No.
