Rationale for decision

`This is reducing the grant award to both organisations, who have significant reserves. Both organisations have saw the accrual of reserves and can see years when their award not being fully spent in year, therefore it is anticipated that this saving would not impede their work or impact their sectors.

They will also be supported as and when required by the Council to access alternative streams of funding.
