The Board of Deputies of British Jews is facing a serious financial crisis, its finance committee revealed here today in a report which warned that unless new sources of income were found the Board’s fund for fighting anti-Semitism would be exhausted by the end of the year.

The finance committee said that the Board’s commitments had outstripped its income and that unless receipts from the voluntary tax in effect in the Jewish community increase greatly in the coming months and are maintained at an “adequate level” the Board will have to cut its commitments.
