All sums realised by Wakefield or Bradford by or in pursuance of the transfer by articles 5, 6 and 7 of this Order of any property or rights shall after deduction of any relevant expenditure be apportioned among the local councils; and Wakefield or, as the case may be, Bradford, shall, not later than the end of the financial year in which such sums are received, pay the appropriate proportion to each of the other local councils and shall retain the balance.

If in any financial year the aggregate in that year of the sums referred to in paragraph is insufficient to meet any relevant expenditure for that year or expenditure incurred under article 2(6) exceeds any amount received under article 2(5), that excess expenditure shall be apportioned among the local councils; and the appropriate proportion shall be recoverable by Wakefield or Bradford, as the case may be, from each of the other local councils.

In this article, “relevant expenditure” means expenditure attributable to this Order which is not defrayed by virtue of any other provision of this Order.
