JennyMorgan Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Could this effect the Broads? Cutting grants to members of the National Parks Family would be only too easy for a cash strapped government.The end result of that could mean that about 75% authority's income would be from boats, but would 75% of the BA's activities then be navigation based? Could be an interesting few months ahead! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Could this effect the Broads? Cutting grants to members of the National Parks Family would be only too easy for a cash strapped government I reckon to make 40% cuts it would be a necessity for a Government Dept to cut its grant funding substantially.

Soundings Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Can't we cut overseas aid! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Too good a return on overseas aid to cut that, better to hit the local councils so we can blame them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundings Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Is the return that great? I wonder! The on-costs must be astronomical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poppy Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 But you and I both know Peter that this Government is FAR from cash strapped - even less so if it were to earnestly pursue the tax evaders and to close the avoidance loopholes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnb Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 O Dave, go and wash your mouth out: Getting rid of Civil Servants? It is they who formulate and implement the policies for their "masters" so I think there's very little chance of that happening. Remember Yes Minister/Prime Minister? Not far off the mark many people in the know say. Employ 1000 to get rid of 100. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
