55 Pa. Code § 229.22. Definitions.

§ 229.22. Definitions.

 The following words and terms, when used in this chapter, have the following meanings, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:

   Cancelled check—One which has been completely prepared and entered in the cash book, but never issued or cashed.

   County disbursement—Payment of assistance from the emergency fund. The emergency fund is public money advanced to the ‘‘Executive Director for the furnishing of assistance and pensions respectively in emergency cases.’’ It will be used only where cash is necessary and disbursement by the Central Office will not meet the situation. Before the emergency fund may be used, the need for cash must be real and proven. An unsubstantiated claim that cash is needed at once will not be sufficient for county disbursement. Neither can need for cash be presumed. A county disbursement may be issued only if the conditions set forth in this chapter are met.

   Voided check—One spoiled in writing before entry in the cash book.
