General grant
Functional Standards Common Glossary, published by the Cabinet Office, defines general grants as: ‘Grants made by departments or their grant-making arm’s length bodies to outside bodies to reimburse expenditure on agreed items or functions, and often paid only on statutory conditions. They include competed, uncompeted and criteria based grants. These grants are closely related in administration to contract procurement, whilst remaining legally distinct.’
