A more detailed explanation is contained in the Reserves Policy section below. Financial Review Reserves policy orto 2017 It was the aim ofthe trustees to pass fvnd5 to Southwark Cathedrdl as quickly 2S W2s cornpatib￿ with the project approvds. having regard to agreed procedures ind trustee responsibilities: in general therefo￿ the trustee$ airns were to maintain reserves only to cover one year'$ experted administrative and Staffing cost5 of the Cachedral DevebpJneni Office. Following receipE in March 2017. of the John Trevor Williams le8acy1£688,266} the Trustees decided to keep this unrestritted le￿cY in the general fund pending a decision on how best to Use the money. There 1$ therefore currendy a larger reserve than is needed simply for Developmenr Office purposes. The Trustees consider that these ￿serveS should be used for projects which offer long-term improvement to the physical state of the fabric, to the pre5erRtion of its musical trndition and to the mrssion and operLtiOThS of the Cathedral, but have nor formed a view a5 co the proporrion to be devoted to each. Based on current discussions with the Cathedral Chapter, and in line with this formulation, however. the Trustees intenuon is chat a proportion of this larEer reserye should be used to fiJTrd attÈss itnprovement work5 at the Cathedral. Further stages ol the acces5 works are experted to be carried out in 2022 and 2023 after the TrusE has passed its funds to Southwark Cathedr31 Development Trust CIO15CDT CIO}. The trustees believe that the tin*scale over which current lund5 will be appli￿ on acces5 improvement or other proiett5 will extsnd over a period of some years.. the Trustees, while maintaining mI￿rI￿ cash balances, have thwefo 211ocated a subsranrial portion of Currenr lunds ro CCLA investments. It will be for the Trustees of the successor body {SCDT CIO) to determine a reserves polKy for the lon8er term.
