This Act may be cited as the Greenwich Hospital Act, 1885; and this Act and the Greenwich Hospital Acts, 1865 to 1883, shall be read and have effect together as one Act, and may be cited together as the Greenwich Hospital Acts, 1865 to 1885.

2 Expenditure to be defrayed out of revenues of Greenwich Hospital.
All expenditure which under the Greenwich Hospital Acts, 1865 to 1883, is in the first instance defrayed out of moneys provided by Parliament for the purpose, shall be defrayed directly out of the money for the time being standing to the credit of the Greenwich Hospital Income Account.
