All moneys received by the Little River Domain Board as Trustees of the said reserves as the rents, issues, and profits thereof respectively may, in the discretion of the Board, be applied towards the management, improvement, and maintenance of the said reserves or of any or either of them.

All moneys which before the passing of this Act may have been expended by the Little River Domain Board on the said land referred to in section two of this Act for improving the same, and which would, if the said land had been under the control of the said Board as a recreation reserve, have been lawfully expended, shall be deemed to have been lawfully expended thereon.
