Explanation of variances
Temporary and Continuous Assistance
- The under expenditure of $139 million, or 12 per cent, is
primarily due to the reduced caseload. The actual average caseload
of 130,524 was 11.2 per cent below the budgeted average of 146,967.
Supplementary Assistance
- The under-expenditure of $22 million is largely attributable
to reduced demand for Child Care Subsidies, Health Assistance
and Community Support Services.
Employment Programs
- The over-expenditure of $3 million includes a $20 million
contribution to the Vancouver Foundation which was offset by
Employment Program savings of $17 million. The savings resulted
from the transition to performance based programs, and a higher
rate of decline in the Expected to Work caseload.
Minister's Office, Corporate Services and Service Delivery
- Under-expenditure of $13 million is due to lower than anticipated
spending in salaries and benefits, building occupancy, amortization
and information technology. Salaries and benefits savings are
linked to FTE utilization.

The Ministry's capital budget of $23.555 million was under-spent
by $18.7 million or 79.4 per cent due to changing priorities in
the information technology capital plan; a shift from capital
costs to operational in-house development costs; and a time lag
in project start-up dates.
