There seemed to be lots of new equipment, and plenty of opportunities for training when I was at Oxford, though that was several years ago. More so than a number of ex-city and county units which I've worked for. Its not that surplus money has to be reinvested in its charitable aims, it can also be reinvested in the business. It can also do things like support specialists.
For all that people talk about Oxford 'steamrollering' local units, didn't they buy up Lancaster when it went bust, and it sounds like Cambridge just wanted to unload their unit. See Shadowjacks postings on the other thread. Better than than see tham go to the wall...
