Withdrawn

Withdrawn on 2026-09-26. Question 9 of each report asks for unspent and/or uncommitted funds. Money encumbered but not yet spent is unspent, so the form's own wording puts it inside Question 9. Neither report lists a total above its receipts. FY2024 Question 9 is 300,316.23 against 308,559.03 received. FY2025 Question 9 is 401,909.29 against 428,942.21 received.

Each report's unspent figure is everything received since 2022 less everything spent. FY2024 certifies 300,316.23 unspent on hand, which is the 308,559.03 received since 2022 less the 8,242.80 spent. FY2025 certifies 401,909.29, which is the 428,942.21 received since 2022 less 8,242.80 and 18,790.12. The same reports also certify the encumbered money as a separate amount. FY2024 lists 197,285.81 encumbered and 300,316.23 unspent, a total of 497,602.04 against 308,559.03 received. FY2025 lists 101,593.06 and 401,909.29, a total of 503,502.35 against 428,942.21 received. The encumbered money is counted twice.
