' “I don‘t see how they expect us to live with those amounts," said Mr. Slavell. “If you take a look at other costs like Hydro which is up 12 per cent, telephone expenses, up 7-10 per cent and rents, for those of our people in group homes jumping 4â€"8 per cent. then you can see the Ministry's increase is unjustifiable.“ Mr. Slavell said those increases were in effect in January and he still must work with 1978 dollars Under the Child Welfare Act. the Region of York is responsible for 20 per cent of the Society‘s costs, leaving the province to absorb the remaining 80 per cent.
