Does anyone with local authority funding know when its meant to end. I have asked some of my colleagues and they all say different things. One says it will end with the last bout of it being in June and the usual Sept funding wont happen because the submission date is in Sept, essentially the other one says that the usual funding which happens in Sept will still happen even though that is when we are due to submit and the december funding wont happen because that is when the viva happens. With the sept funding meant to carry us through to our viva in december.

I have no idea I assumed June would be the end, does anyone know? Mainly with the PhD coming to an end in the midst of a credit crunch it would be nice to know how much saving I need to start doing. Can anyone illuminate me?
