Depends upon the rules of the concerned organisation. Can you state, in which organisation the term is used?

In the court language it is the expenses deposited for the evidence of the witnesses on the civil cases or in the private complaints.

diet money word is used when a witness is called for summoning from outside and for that purpose he has to spend his valuable time. So court fastens a duty upon the party who calls such witness to deposit with it diet money for that person so that it may be paid to him when he comes for his evidence.
