The fonds de concours procedure is used when funds paid by legal entities or individuals to contribute with those of the collectivity of Saint-Barthélemy to expenditure in the public interest, duly accepted by the territorial council, are entered directly as revenue in the budget. A supplementary appropriation of the same amount is made by budgetary deliberation to the chapter which is to bear the expenditure. The use of the funds must be in accordance with the intention of the contributing party or donor.
