    If you do a search on the forums, this has been asked and answered a few times. If I remember Sandy Hood did a very comprehensive answer to this.

    Hello

    Public Sector cash balances are meant to be kept to a bare minimum. This is because HM Treasury has to borrow the cash to fund it's governemnt departments.

    There are also risk factors associated with placing any surplus cash on deposit with financial insitutions, such as Northern Rock etc.

    Hope this helps.
