Official Report of Debates of the Legislative Assembly - child care spending
Trevena: I'd like to ask her [Reid] a little bit more about that spending. Last year's budget left at least $40 million still available for spending, $20 million of which was given in one-time payments at the end of March. At the time the minister indicated that that was because the Auditor General had directed her ministry to make sure that money was spent, but that was still leaving $20 million of $40 million. |
