S 40 (simplified outline) substituted by No 8 of 2005, s 3 and Sch 1 item 338, effective 22 February 2005. For savings provisions see note under s
3
. The simplified outline formerly read:
•
Interest is funded by transferring the net interest amount from the Consolidated Revenue Fund to the Reserve.
•
An Unallocated Interest Pool is to be kept within the Reserve.
•
Unallocated interest is represented by the balance of the Unallocated Interest Pool.
•
In special cases, the Unallocated Interest Pool may be supplemented by transferring money from the Consolidated Revenue Fund.
•
Since interest only accrues on the first $1,200 of an account balance, it is possible for a surplus to build up in the Unallocated Interest Pool. The surplus can be transferred to the Consolidated Revenue Fund.
