Dear Sir or Madam,

Does Weymouth & Portland Borough Council have any money deposited

Does W&PBC have any monies deposited in Banks that are UK based? If
so how much and with which UK organisations?

Does W&PBC spread the risk of a single bank collapse by using
various banks?

Yours faithfully,

Dear Mr Brown,

Thank you for your request received yesterday in relation to the above.

I have spoken with our finance team and they have confirmed that we have no money deposited in any Icelandic Bank. With regard to question 3, we do spread the risk of our investments to avoid the issue of a bank collapsing. Lastly, we publish the details of our investments on a monthly basis as part of our budget monitoring process and if you were to search our site you would find the documents. As a public authority, we have a Publication Scheme that contains the details of what information we routinely publish. In the future, please search the Scheme for the desired information and, if you are unable to find the information you want, then you can make a request in writing to the authority. In this particular request the latest investment information is contained in Appendix 5 of the Revenue & Capital Budget Monitoring to end of August 2008. The link below will take you directly to the appendix:

I hope this is of use to you and if there is any other information you require, please do contact us.
