B. Impact of "Restraint II" Program

On July 30, 1982, a further reduction of $350,000 in this year's
budget was imposed by the Ministry of Education. he College
was also advised to assume that the funding level for next year
(1983/84) would be reduced by a further $235,000 and will not

include any inflationary increase for salaries or other
expenditures.

For this school year, the $350,000 requirement has been met by:
1) using al] operating capital (equipment purchases) to
pay salaries.

2) suspending one intake (January) of Early Childhood
_ Education students.

3) suspending one intake (January) of the Long Term
Care Aide Program.

4) a further reduction of 12 sections (Business -3,
Performing Arts -2, and Academic -7).

5) 3% roll-back of administrative salaries.
6) faculty agreement to five (5) days leave without pay.

Further impacts will be felt during the next (1983/84) school year,
including the elimination of the Academic Summer School, reduction
of community programming, further reductions in student services,
and probably program eliminations. These impacts will be affected
by the 1983/84 actual budget, negotiations with College employees,
and student fee revenue.
