Hide AdAuthority chairman Peter Conniff said: “The underspend, which is an unexpected windfall, will be placed in a fund to help us finance the changes we need to implement to meet the funding imposed by the government. This will include set-up costs for new projects and specific performance initiatives to boost performance if the changes lead to fluctuations.”
