policy for holding reserves

are small and predictable so we will
only need a small reserve. It would
be good to have enough in reserve to
be able to immediately replace or
repair a workshop machine but none
of them are essential to our
operation and none cost more than a
few hundred pounds. A reserve of a
thousand pounds would be plenty.| |Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|£0| |Reasons for holding zero
