51. Where the National Assembly is not in session by reason of a scheduled adjournment of at least 20 days and an unforeseen expenditure for which provision has not been made by Parliament is urgently and immediately required for the public good, the Government may, upon the report of the chair of the Conseil du trésor and of the Minister of Finance that there is no legislative provision under which payment of the unforeseen expenditure may be authorized and the report of the minister responsible that the payment is urgently required in the public interest, order a special warrant to be prepared authorizing payment of the amount it considers necessary; the warrant shall be signed by the Lieutenant-Governor and the amount shall be placed by the Minister of Finance in an account established for that purpose.
