Reserve and provision
Reserve and provision, the expression 'reserve' has not been defined in the Act and therefore one would be inclined to resort to its ordinary natural meaning as given in the dictionary but it seems to us that the dictionary meaning, though useful in itself, may not be sufficient, for, the dictionaries do not make any distinction between the two concepts 'reserve' and 'provision' which giving their primary meanings, whereas in the context of the legislation with which we are concerned in the case a clear distinction between the two is implied.
