Unspent appropriations not to lapse
Where—

a capital expenditure project was provided for by section 5 of the
Appropriation Act 2012 (the "2012 Act"); and

in the case of a capital development project, the Minister responsible for

pursuant to, section 5 of the 2012 Act that was unspent on 1 April 2013 does not lapse but
is deemed to be provided for by section 5 of this Act and is available in every respect as if
it had been expressly provided for that project by corresponding provision in section 5 of
