Working files of cost-shared programs [textual record]

Scope and content:

Show detail Hide detail

This is a preliminary record, please consult the linked accession. Sub-sub-series consists of working files from the Cost Shared Programs area relating to the Work Activity Function under Section III of the Canada Assistance Plan Act (CAP). Part III of the Act, which relates to Work Activity Projects, allowed Health and Welfare, in consultation with Employment and Immigration (now Human Resources Development Canada), to commit the federal government to a further agreement with any province which already has a general agreement under Part I to fund half the cost of a work activity project. Such projects/programs are designed to improve the motivation and work capacity of those on public assistance who have not been able to obtain training, or have unusual difficulty in securing and/or retaining a job. The files include: working notes; reports; news clippings about the program and its funding; information from related programs such as the Local Initiatives Program of the former Employment and Immigration Canada; copies of CAP agreements; minutes of the former Interdepartmental Committee on Work Activity; briefing notes; and information on provincial programs. The sub-sub-series also contains material relating to CAP funding of social programs for natives, news clippings, reports and memoranda; much of this material dates from 1991 to 1995 and is related to the issues raised by the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples.
