Dear Joanne Woodall,
Many thanks for your prompt reply. Most of the information is clear but I would be grateful if you could explain what is the "Treasury management reserve" which is 2.2 million pounds.
many thanks

Dear Mr Parish,
Our Group Accountant has explained that :
The Treasury Management Reserve is built up at times of high interest rates when the investment income exceeds the budget. It is used to smooth out fluctuations in movement of interest rates and to support the budget at times of low interest rates.
