The book kept by the caretaker indicates what cash has been received for hall hire and some infonnalion has Sin￿ been obtsined regarding coffee momings and bingo but there sb'll remains a considerable sum of unidentified bankings. Breakdown of bankings should indicate what monies were received for and what cash has been expended. Best practi￿ in dealing wth funds should be that a limit is set for cash payments and cheques or bank transfers to be the preferred method of payment. All cash payments should be backed up with receipts. All bank statements should be passed to the treasurer Two comments below from last year I note that the CAF Cuffent account has not been used during th8 year but has incuffed a monthly charge however l Unde￿tand that this account is to be closed. There is a lot of money in the Lloyds Current account. Unless this is needed in lh8 immediat8 fvkuro could some b8 transfeffed to the deposit account to eam a litt18 bit of interesf? While there is a deficit for the year this is partly due to the retum of unused grant monies and the purchase of assets. 8L>knI J.N5-
