We used scare tatics to get the wards to give up their kit to the Library. During this period of termoil, the wards agreed to alot of new rules,which they previously wouldn't have.
Now, when they want new kit, they have to jump through hoops to get it - having given up their right to buy kit during the period of termoil...

We have a Library and it owns the kit - new and old.

Ultimately, it's the end user's that mess the system up, then they moan because we can't supply them the kit.

Cheers
