A phrase formed by elision from " away-going crop," and meaning such crops as the tenant has the right to cut and carry with him, after the end of the term. See Patterson; Bouvier. committee whose duties are to inquire into and propose to the house the ways and means to be adopted to raise funds for the use of the government. This body is called the committee of ways and means. Bouvier, The functions and duties of a committee of ways and means have reference to the funds by which such expenditure is to be sustained. In parliament, loans, duties, taxes, tolls, revenue, and imports of every description, are submitted to a committee of ways and means (which is always one of the whole house). The propositions of government on these subjects are reduced to the form of resolutions, considered, decided on, and such as are agreed to, reported to the house. Those which may be there adopted are embodied into bills, and in due course become law. As in the case of supply, the lords may reject, but cannot modify; neither can their lordships insert pecuniary penalties in any bill whatever. Dod Pari. Camp.
