Changes to spending approval limits

The Trust is currently implementing changes to the scheme of delegation spending approval limits to support the management of our finances as part of our Financial Plan. Individual budget holder limits will be updated, with all changes fully implemented by 6 June.

The table below illustrates the Board approved changes which have now been aligned to our systems:

Budget holder band Current approval rate Proposed approval rate
Band 6 £5,000 £500
Band 7 £10,000 £1,000
Band 8a £15,000 £1,500
Band 8b £20,000 £5,000
