Bert and Grace van Donkers­ goed were supper guests of Leslie and Yvonne Knight on Saturday, Jan. 10 and were presented with a Proposed to distribute report too expensive, Allen says The Ministry of Education has proposedthattheannual report required from each board of education’s chief administrator should be printed and delivered to every ratepayer, a practice the Huron County Board’s Bob Allen says would cost a lot for the benefit it gives. At present, the director of education is required to present an annual report to members of the school board and to local schools, where it is accessible to the public, but is only required by law to publish the annual financial report where all ratepayers may examine it - in the county’s newspapers. “It rankles me that we are required to deliver a financial statement (every year). I don’t think the public is impressed,’’ Mr. Allen said. “I doubt if the annual report would keep ratepay­ ers on the edge of their seats, either.” Mr. Allen says it now costs the Huron Board of Education approxi­ mately $4,000 per year to publish the annual financial statement in the county ’ s eight newspapers, but wouldn’tventureaguess on the cost of delivering an annual report into the hands of every public school supporter in Huron. His 1986 report ran to 26 pages. Under current legislation, the chief executive officer is required to submit an annual report to trustees at the first meeting in December of each year. T&e new proposal is part of the ministry’s concern in making Ontario boards of education more accountable to the public, which pays more than 34 per cent of a board’s annual operating expenses through muni­ cipal assessment.
