Mr. Chair, with respect to the rollout of child and family services, we are spending a significant amount of money on child and family services today. The changes that are being proposed are going to increase efficiencies and provide better services. It doesn’t necessarily mean we need more money. It just means we really need to do better with the money we have, and many of these changes are going to give us the ability to do those things.
I do acknowledge that there is a fundamental change in how we provide child and family services being undertaken right now. It has a three to five-year rollout period. A number of the actions are happening right now. We believe those can be funded from within. As we roll out, we may realize that, you know what, we do need some more money, at which point we would be going to the
Executive Council to seek additional dollars with the support of committee.
