Some of the recom-
mendations, Treasurer
McKeough said, will be
regarded in some quarter as
`pretty -strong medicine" and
it remains to be seen how
much support they get either
in the Legislature . or
throughout the Province to
make their adoption feasible.
The Provincial cabinet
cannot account for up to $51
million received from the
federal government for social
welfare programs, which was
intended to be spent on
assistance for mentally
retarded people. The, minister
of community and social
services,' stated that his
ministry received $30 million
in 1974-1975 and $18 million for
the first six months of this
year from Ottawa under the
Canada Assistance Plan, and
that the ministry's projected
spending for the rest of the
year ,was $15.4 million, in-
creasing over the next few
years- 'up to $64.9 million in
1978-7R.
• Assumin,g -the $18 million
for the first six months would
be matched by a further $18
million for the second sig
months, this would mean a
total of $66 million received
for the retarded 'over the
year, of which .._only $15.4
million was to , be spent.
Provincial Treasurer Darcy
McKeough" has ' stated that ,
these funds will be spent on
programs for the mentally
retarded probably over four
or five years, but he said the
ProVince i's under no
obligation to spend the funds,.
on specific programs,
