What is meant by clearing of cheques?

If you take a cheque to your bank to pay it in, the bank will credit your account with the amount, but you will not be able to withdraw this amount until the bank has processed the cheque internally and received the money from the bank issuing the cheque. When they have done this the money is 'really' in you account and you can take it out - the cheque has cleared. This practice was needed (and reasonable) when cheques had to be processed between banks manually and protected the bank from the effects of bad cheques. However modern banking means that the clearing is electronic and yet the banks still keep the cleared funds for the same amount of time they always did (a week) - they use these uncleared funds themselves and it is wrong!
