Windsor & Maidenhead BC is to limit all non-essential spending as it raised the risk of a section 114.

The council said it would reduce and stop some services, and scale back its capital programme to reduce borrowing costs, with interest payments currently forecast to reach £8m this year and £14m in 2024-25.
