About this statute

This provision defines key financial terms and sets out who must collect, deposit, account for, and report on public money and trust money. This part governs how Yukon public money may be collected, held, transferred, spent, written off, remitted, and contracted for, and it limits payments unless authorized by law or valid directives. This segment sets rules for payment approvals, accounting for public money, year-end reporting, investments, revolving funds, and borrowing controls. This part lets Yukon officials manage public borrowing, securities, guarantees, and public-money enforcement, and it creates offences for non-compliance and improper destruction of public-money records. The Commissioner in Executive Council may make regulations for this Act, and may exempt a department or public officer by regulation on the Minister’s recommendation. A person convicted of an offence under the Act can be fined up to $1,000, jailed up to six months, or both.
