Answer Details
The instrument used to release fund which the minister of finance has earlier withheld is a "Supplementary Warrant". A supplementary warrant is issued when additional funds are required for a particular purpose beyond the amount originally allocated in the budget.

The supplementary warrant is used to release funds that have previously been withheld by the minister of finance.
