Budget authorityBroad responsibility by Congress that government agencies have the power to spend federal funds. Congress can specify criteria for the spending of these funds. For example, it may stipulate that a given agency must spend within a specific year, number of years, or any time in the future. The basic forms of budget authority are; appropriations, authority to borrow, contract authority, and authority to obligate and expend offsetting receipts and collections. The period of time during which Congress makes funds available may be specified as one-year, multiple years or no year. The available amount may be classified as either definite or indefinite; a specific amount or an unspecified amount can be made available. Authority may also be classified as current or permanent. Permanent authority requires no current action by Congress.Budget authority Similar MatchesUK Listing AuthorityUK Listing AuthorityThe body authorised by the FSA that decides on the rules for the listing of public companies, reviews and approves the prospectuses of companies that want to list, and which in consultation with various departments of the London Stock Exchange, enforces those rules.
