Since the incident, the centre has taken a number of steps, in- cluding the hiring of a manage- ment consultant, to ensure that it is in compliance with the fi- nancial reporting guidelines and to tighten legal and admin- istrative procedures. Ms. Williamson and the board of directors also meet on a regular basis with representa- tives from the Solicitor Gener- al's Office to provide status re- ports. "As far as I'm concerned the problems in the Toronto Sun story are past tense," Ms. Wil- liamson said. "We continue to work closely with the Solicitor General's Office. Our clients re- ceiving this crucial service are benefiting from provincial fund- ing." Durham East MPP Gord Mills, who serves as Parliamen- tary Assistant to the Solicitor General, told the Port Perry' Star on Friday that the situa- tion "was not news tome."

Mr. Mills said he was told of improprieties occurring at a similar centre in Barrie. He alerted the MPP from Simcoe of the concerns. Mr. Mills said the problems at the Scugog centre have "been handled and resolved." Although the centre may have corrected the problem, Ms. Williamson is concerned that it could have a negative effect on the centre. "I hope yesterday's news doesn't jeopardize funding for the sexual assault services that are so important," she said. During the 1992/93 fiscal year the Scugog centre received $210,000 in funding from the Solicitor General's Office. It also raised an additional $154,000 through bingos and the sale of Nevada tickets. The centre has an annual budget of more than $300,000. Flag at half-mast to mourn loss of teacher From page 1 cause she was heavily involved with athletics at the school.
