The bill regulates public fund records, expiry and reversion, and requires public notices of implemented funding and completed reversions. It gives Parliament and qualifying Chancellery officeholders inspection access, establishes parliamentary investigations with compulsory evidence powers and safeguards, and creates a permanent public hearing record. It establishes the Statutes at Large and codification rules, clarifies the application of assented sovereign displacement, and entrenches a unified national judiciary that applies valid Imperial, subnational and local law.
An accountability and fiscal discipline measure that strengthens parliamentary oversight and procedural safeguards while reinforcing nationally administered courts.
Ch. 2 returns unused expired programme money, blocks new commitments and closes spent authorities while protecting continuing funds and existing obligations, a moderate funding discipline measure.
