# 10 U.S.C. § 2776 - Use of receipts of public money for current expenditures
## Text
Without deposit to the credit of the Secretary of the Treasury and without withdrawal on money requisitions, a disbursing official of the Department of Defense may use receipts of public money charged in the disbursing officials accounts (except receipts to be credited to river, harbor, and flood control appropriations) for current expenditures, with necessary bookkeeping adjustments being made.
(Added Pub. L. 97258, § 2(b)(8)(B), Sept. 13, 1982, 96 Stat. 1055.)
## Notes
Historical and Revision Notes Revised sectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 277631:493a.Aug. 1, 1953, ch. 305, § 611, 67 Stat. 350. The words “disbursing official” are substituted for “officer . . . on disbursing duty” for consistency with other titles of the United States Code. The words “On and after August 1, 1953” are omitted as executed. The words “Secretary of the Treasury” are substituted for “Treasury of the United States” because of section 1(a) of Reorganization Plan No. 26 of 1950 (eff. July 31, 1950, 64 Stat. 1280), restated in section 321 of the revised title contained in section 1 of the bill. The words “from sales or other sources” are omitted as surplus. The words “with” and “being” are added because of the restatement. The words “of appropriations, funds, and accounts to be . . . in the settlement of their disbursing accounts” are omitted as unnecessary.
