When I looked at the summary of the 2018 accounts, and some material attached to them, I was puzzled as to why a loan would be taken out at a 9% interest rate in 2014. If I had wanted to, I would have been able to get a loan at 0.5% interest in 2014. Other entities would also have been able to do that if they had wanted to. Why did the board draw down a loan at a 9% interest rate? It is extraordinarily high.
