    The amount of funding actually paid to HSF applicants totalled £261,572.28.

    2. £0.00

    3. Not applicable, as none of the fund was remaining.

    5. Hastings Borough Council has been allocated £412,280 of which 12% is to be used for HBC's administration costs. The remaining amount will be made available to HSF applicants.
