The arbitrary carving up of budgets...Dear Mr Clown<br /><br />The arbitrary carving up of budgets between 'capital' and 'revenue' expenditure is behind this insanity.<br /><br />'Capital' items last whereas revenue items don't in the simplistic administration of money, but they are interchangeable. Years ago the NHS were reported to be spending £x,000 per year per patient on liquid oxygen supplies. They were unable to buy oxygen concentrators to do the same job for £y,000, where y = 2x, because they were 'capital' items and the LOX was 'revenue' and they had spent their 'capital' budget...<br /><br />Plus of course you have to spend your budget before the end of the fiscal year, or lose it.<br /><br />Wall meet urine.<br /><br />I am sure that this happens all the time across the entire multi-verse.<br /><br />So that’s alright then<br /><br />DPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-29914774716386147502010-08-24T20:43:48.891+01:002010-08-24T20:43:48.891+01:00This happens here, slightly smaller scale granted ...This happens here, slightly smaller scale granted but still.Kingbingohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08943872286295476316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-56622652523738795772010-08-24T17:22:41.622+01:002010-08-24T17:22:41.622+01:00I was fizzing when a school in my town was built f...I was fizzing when a school in my town was built for £27 million, paid for by generations of tax payers for the exclusive use of Roman Catholics.RantinRabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557178651491442917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-45911190670177577502010-08-24T16:40:25.432+01:002010-08-24T16:40:25.432+01:00Yet the kids from there will never come good until...Yet the kids from there will never come good until they hit 18 and make a sex tape.<br /><br />Such a waste of money..
