British North American Legislative Database, 1758-1867

An Act to make good on the four thousand and eighty-two pounds, twelve shillings, and nine-pence one halfpenny advanced to cover the House of Assembly's expenses, which the 1793 Act “An Act to establish a fund for paying the salaries of the officers of the Legislative Council and Assembly, and for defraying the contingent expenses thereof,” was insufficient to cover. The funds are to be taken from any unappropriated funds in the hands of the Receiver-General.
