The pattern is obvious, and a destructive one: as Australia well knows. Federal over-reach in Australia has come through fiscal imposition on the states. The near Civil War we had in the 1930s was over the Feds under-writing state loans. When NSW defaulted, suddenly the Feds were liable.
What isnt obvious is the name. Paymaster is probably the best and closest fit but it isnt obvious what it is describing from the name itself. Maybe Paymaster-General? A play on the older style of Australian parliamentary cabinet positions?
You need to collect all these into one location/book etc.
