Plus or minus ?

A new document, woven from old strategies and promises; that's the "BBC Executive priorities and summary workplan 2011/2", published today, under the imprimatur of Senior Independent Director (and Barclays Bank chairman ) Marcus Agius.

It spends plenty of time talking about the challenge of cuts - but when it comes to the money allocated for the year ahead, the changes are so far small beer.  Here's what the estimated totals are for a selection of services and networks, compared with what they actually spent in 2009/10, the most recently available accounts. Do they reflect the trends for DQF ?
