Occasionally, circumstances arise whereby an urgent expenditure becomes necessary at a time when Parliament is not in session, and there is no appropriation pursuant to which payment may be made.

A Governor General’s Warrant is an appropriation for the fiscal year in which it is issued. The following conditions apply: 1. The warrant must be issued in the fiscal year in which the expenditures are required; 2. The unspent balance lapses at the year-end; 3.
