_ Family maintenance Program,

future still shaky

To the editor,

. On May 19/86, Lwrote
a letter to local news-
papers expressing my con-

em over the absence of .

the services of the Family
Maintenance Program,
FMP, throughout the pro-
vince, and the unnecessary

hardships faced by the

single-parent family when
they are struggling to.sur-

|. vive without financial sup-
~ port from an ex-spouse;.as
well as the burden placed.
on the B.C. taxpayers —
|. roughly $2 million dollars
|--each year.
. Everyone seems to agree _
-|) -we desperately need the |
“ program — members of.
_ the public, politicians, the
_ legal community, and the

organizers of the FMP.

~ However, at this point the
program still has not been .

expanded, and is-in fact,.
still in jeopardy of being
cancelled altogether. It
seems so inconsistent that
in spite of the obvious
need and support of the
FMP, its future is still so

shaky. ;
I spoke to Premier Bill

Vander Zalm when he was

“> in. Kitwanga and asked
. Ms him if the difficulty faced
oe by” ‘single-parent - families.

fea” - Tegarding, maintenance or-

ders is on his list of prior-
ities. His reply was that it

definitely is, that he total- -
ly supports the FMP and -
promised. to look. into”

where the program stands.
I have also recently con-

tacted Skeena M.L.A.

Dave Parker, who echoes

‘Mr. Vander Zalm’s com-

mitment to the issue. His
office is working with me
to lobby for province-wide
implementation. Mr. Par-
ker will take the issue to

ter.

Phase one of the FMP
has. already. been imple-
mented in Vancouver as a
-pilot project and is now

under review to determine:

its effectiveness, lam sug-

gesting that the next phase
of the program be intro- |

ing. (A spokesman for the.

_FMP indicated that if the
program gets the go a-
head, it will be phased in

region by region. rather
than on an immediate full- .

scale basis throughout the
province.) I would like to

stress that Vancouver is an

urban setting; I feel that a-
similar pilot project in a -
_fural setting would give

the government a truer

reading of the cost involv- -

ed in province-wide imple-

mentation of this pro- —

gram,

I believe this to be a

very opportune time to

‘lobby for province-wide

implementation of the

FMP — while it has the
government’s attention,

especially that of Bill
Vander Zalm and Attor-
ney General Brian Smith.

I am hoping now to cre-
ate some public support in

lobbying for the: program

I would like to urge all

having this valuable pro-
gram, and those who be-
lieve in the importance of
the program, to write a
letter to Brian Smith, c/o
Parliament Buildings, Vie-

toria, B.C. V8V-1X4 and.
