Separate accounts shall be kept of receipts carried to, and payments out of, the Council's general fund— and the account for general London purposes shall be called the general London account and an account for any special London purpose shall be called a special London account.

All expenses incurred by the Council under any enactment shall, unless the enactment otherwise provides, be deemed to be expenses for general London purposes ; and in determining the amount of expenses for any particular London purpose, whether general or special, a proper proportion of the cost of the officers and buildings and establishment of the Council may be added to the expenses directly incurred for that purpose.
The Council shall have power to issue precepts for the levying of rates to meet all liabilities falling to be discharged by the Council for which provision is not otherwise made; and any such precept may include as separate items contributions for general and special London purposes respectively and shall be so issued as to secure that the rate is levied—

The accounts of the Council shall be included among the accounts which are subject to audit by a district auditor under Part X of the Local Government Act 1933.
The Council may determine that any expenses incurred by the Council in promoting or opposing any Bill under Part XIII of the Local Government Act 1933 shall be treated as expenses incurred for special London purposes.
The expenditure by the Council on capital account or on lending to other persons shall be regulated by annual money Acts, the Bills for which shall be promoted by the Council and each of which shall make provision for a financial period consisting of a financial year (that is to say, a period of twelve months ending on the thirty-first day of March) and the immediately following six months.
During any such financial period as aforesaid, the Council may expend on capital account for such purposes as may be mentioned in the relevant annual money Act such sums as the Council think fit not exceeding the amounts specified in that Act in relation to those purposes for the first twelve months and the last six months respectively of that period. In addition to any other money which the Council are authorised by any such Act to expend for any purpose in the last six months of the relevant financial period, the Council may also expend for that purpose during those last six months any money which they are by that Act authorised to expend but have not expended for that purpose in the first twelve months of that period. Any money expended in the last six months of a financial period shall be treated as expenditure on account of the financial year comprising those six months.
During any such financial period as aforesaid the Council may lend to persons of any class mentioned in the next following sub-paragraph such sums as the Council think fit not exceeding the amounts specified in the relevant annual money Act in relation to loans to persons of that class for the first twelve months and the last six months respectively of that period. The classes of persons referred to in the foregoing sub-paragraph are— In addition to any other money which the Council are authorised by an annual money Act to lend to any class of persons in the last six months of a financial period, the Council may also lend to any persons of that class during those six months any money which the Council are by that Act authorised to lend but have not lent to persons of that class in the first twelve months of that period. A loan made under this paragraph during the last six months of a financial period shall be treated as a loan made on account of the financial year comprising those six months. Subject to the provisions of any enactment relating to the borrowing powers of the person concerned, any person shall have power to borrow from the Council any money which the Council are by virtue of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph authorised to lend to that person. Money lent under this paragraph shall be repaid to the Council with interest within such period as the borrower (with the consent of the Minister where his consent is necessary to the borrowing) and the Council may agree, but the period shall not exceed— Money lent under this paragraph may be made repayable either in one sum or by instalments or by a series of equal annual or other instalments comprising both principal and interest or otherwise as may be agreed between the Council and the borrower. Where the Council lend money to a person whose power to borrow is subject to the consent of the Minister, the consent of the Minister to the borrowing of the money shall be conclusive evidence that that person had power to borrow the money at the time when the consent was given.
If the whole of the amount authorised by an annual money Act to be expended for any authorised purpose in the first twelve or last six months of the relevant financial period aforesaid is not required to be so expended, the Council may with the approval of the Treasury expend for any other authorised purpose in those twelve or, as the case may be, six months (in addition to the amount authorised in relation to that other purpose) an amount not exceeding the unexpended portion of the first-mentioned amount. If by reason of unforeseen circumstances the amount authorised by an annual money Act to be expended for any authorised purpose in the first twelve or last six months of the relevant financial period aforesaid is found to be insufficient, the Treasury may on the application of the Council authorise the Council to expend for that purpose such further sums as it is shown to the satisfaction of the Treasury to be necessary or desirable for the Council so to expend, not exceeding in the aggregate such amount as may be authorised in that behalf by that Act in relation to those twelve or, as the case may be, six months. In ascertaining for the purposes of paragraph 26(2) or 27(3) of this Schedule the amount which may be expended for any authorised purpose in the last six months of the financial period aforesaid to which an annual money Act relates, there shall be taken into account the extent to which the sum authorised to be expended for that purpose in the first twelve months of that period has been expended under sub-paragraph (1) of this paragraph for any other authorised purpose. The provisions of paragraph 27(6) to (8) of this Schedule shall apply to any loan under this paragraph as they apply to any loan under that paragraph. In this paragraph references in connection with an annual money Act to expenditure for an authorised purpose are references to expenditure—
Notwithstanding anything in section 195 of the Local Government Act 1933, the Council may borrow money for the purpose of expenditure on capital account or on lending if, but only if, the expenditure is authorised by an annual money Act; and where any such expenditure is so authorised the consent of the sanctioning authority within the meaning of Part IX of the said Act of 1933 shall not be required to any borrowing for the purpose thereof.
The Council may establish a fund (in this paragraph referred to as “the insurance fund ”) to be available for making good such losses, damages, costs and expenses as may from time to time arise in respect of such risks as the Council may determine (in this paragraph referred to as “the specified risks ”). The establishment of the insurance fund shall not prevent the Council from insuring in any insurance office in the United Kingdom against the whole or any part of the specified risks. The Council shall in respect of each year after the establishment of the insurance fund pay into that fund such sum as they think necessary not exceeding the aggregate of— but so long as the insurance fund amounts to or exceeds a sum which in the opinion of the Council is reasonably necessary to cover the specified risks the Council may if they think fit discontinue the yearly payments required by this sub-paragraph. The amount by which any sum paid into the insurance fund in respect of any year exceeds the sum referred to in sub-paragraph (3)(b) of this paragraph may at the discretion of the Council be provided from the respective revenues, funds or rates which, if the specified risks were insured in an insurance office, would be properly chargeable with the payment of the premiums on that insurance or may be provided as a payment for general London purposes. Pending the application of the insurance fund for the purposes authorised by this paragraph, the moneys in the fund shall, unless applied in any other manner authorised by any enactment, be invested in any investment for the time being authorised by law for the investment of trust property ; and sections 1 to 6 of the Trustee Investments Act 1961 shall apply in relation to the power of investment conferred on the Council by this sub-paragraph as if the Council were trustees and the insurance fund were trust property. Any income arising from the investment of money in the insurance fund or otherwise from the application of that fund shall be credited to the general London account of the Council's general fund. If at any time the insurance fund is insufficient to make good any losses, damages, costs or expenses arising in respect of any specified risk, the Council shall make good the deficiency as a payment for general London purposes and may for that purpose borrow money. Where the Council insure against any risk in any insurance office in the United Kingdom, the Council may if they think fit pay out of the insurance fund any premiums payable in respect of that insurance; but no such premium shall be so paid if in consequence of the payment the fund would be reduced to less than the sum which in the opinion of the Council is reasonably necessary to cover the specified risks. Any covenant or obligation binding on the Council to insure against any risk shall, except in so far as the terms of the covenant or obligation otherwise specifically provide, be deemed to be satisfied by a determination by the Council that that risk shall be a specified risk. Without prejudice to the generality of the last foregoing sub-paragraph, where the effecting by the Council of an insurance in respect of any risk would satisfy any obligation imposed on the Council by section 119(1) of the Local Government Act 1933, a determination by the Council that that risk shall be a specified risk shall be deemed to satisfy that obligation. References in this paragraph to insurance in an insurance office in the United Kingdom shall be deemed to include references to insurance with an underwriter carrying on business in the United Kingdom.
The Council shall be a local authority within the meaning of the following enactments—
the Ferries (Acquisition by Local Authorities) Act 1919 ;

If it appears to the Greater London Council that any part of a London borough or county district is so situate that it would be convenient for the purposes of sewerage and drainage that that part should be placed under the management of the council of an adjoining borough or district, the Greater London Council may by order direct that that part shall, for those purposes, be under the management of that borough or district council. Where, by virtue of an order under this paragraph, any part of a London borough or county district is placed under the management of the council of an adjoining borough or district, the sums which that council require for defraying the expenses incurred by them in the discharge of their functions relating to sewerage in the said part of the first-mentioned borough or district shall be paid, upon the order of that council, by the council of the first-mentioned borough or district.
Where— the Greater London Council may order that the street or line of street shall, for the purposes of sewerage or drainage or both, be under the exclusive management of the council of one of the said boroughs or districts, and may by order direct in what proportions the costs of constructing and maintaining any new sewer or drain in the street or line of street, or of reconstructing, repairing or maintaining any sewer or drain therein, are to be borne and defrayed respectively by the councils of those boroughs or districts, and the decision of the Greater London Council with respect thereto shall be final.

Any dispensation granted by the Minister under the last foregoing sub-paragraph may be given either unconditionally or subject to conditions (including conditions requiring the Greater London Council to make payments to the other council in respect of the expenses of repairing or renewing the sewer to be transferred). Where a sewer transferred under this paragraph is situated in a part of a London borough or county district or in a street to which an order under paragraph 10 or 11 of this Part of this Schedule applies, the Greater London Council may make such amendments of that order as appear to them to be appropriate in consequence of the transfer.

Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, where it is proposed to erect or rebuild in an inner London borough any house or building at such a level as will not allow of the drainage of all parts of the house or building by gravitation as aforesaid, the borough council may, as respects any part of the house or building which cannot be so drained, either— Any pumping or lifting apparatus provided under this sub-paragraph shall be deemed to be a drain. Where separate sewers for the reception of surface water and sewage respectively have been, or are intended to be, provided in any street, the borough council may, in the discharge of their functions under this paragraph in relation to any house or other building which is to be drained into the sewers in that street, require that the house or building be provided with separate drains for discharging surface water and sewage respectively into the appropriate sewers. Any person aggrieved by any order, direction, requirement or other decision of a borough council under the foregoing provisions of this paragraph may appeal to a magistrates' court.
Where in an inner London borough— the council may, by notice served on the owner of the house or building, impose such requirements as are mentioned in the next following sub-paragraph.
