Overdrawn Imprest Accounts

Posted on 15 August 2013 by education.finance

Every week Barclays informs the payments department here at DCC of any accounts that are overdrawn. The payments team then has to contact the establishment to resolve the situation, however, at the moment there are some school imprest accounts that are considerably overdrawn but due to the holidays no contact has been made (although emails have still been sent). Therefore, some schools could still be overdrawn in September.

It is against DCC Financial Regulations to be overdrawn and with that no overdraft arrangements are in place with the bank. So, if you are one of the schools that are currently overdrawn please get in contact with the Payments team as soon as possible on 01392 382415 or email melissa.northcott@devon.gov.uk
