There are significant problems in this regard because such agencies cannot sustain their staff. The majority of those working in these services are not high earners and the increments are a percentage of their earnings. I am hearing about a lot of issues from parents of children with disability or adults with disability. There was supposed to be greater integration of services, such as administration, that could support the delivery of the services and take out some of the cost. I wonder how that is progressing.
