such facilities as the Sheridan Youlh Centre In Milton to pay for part of their costs loo More facilities like the centre and Women needed in the region council maintains but the province a community and social services ministry should insist that if they arc going to be used by nearby municipalities a cost sharing arrangement should be worked out with the region neighbors While the Sheridan Youth Association continues to negotiate for additional funding for its Milton centre with the province a community and social services ministry the region intends to make it clear to the government lhat it has already overspent ports of its daycare and general assistance budgets due to the Increasing demand for private home daycare can be met from other areas in Ihe daycare account but Juvenile
