Schedule L - Canadian Blood Services – Litigation Notification Program – Cost Recovery Budget – April 1- December 31, 2006

Litigation Notification Program Associate

This position will be required this fiscal year at a .5 FTE capacity.  This position will continue to liaise with the Fund Administrator and CBS Centre staff.  CBS is seeking recovery of .5 FTE, or approximately $18,750 for the budget period.

Mailing/Courier Costs (Ottawa – Toronto)

The projected costs for mailing and courier have increased due to the relocation of the LB/TB Program to Toronto.  The approximate costs will be $50 per week, or $1,950 for the budget period.   This cost represents courier packages sent from the LNP office in Toronto to the Fund Administrator in Ottawa.    Also included in this cost is the postage for reporting letters to claimants, and any other special mailings that may be required.   We are seeking to recover the costs of the mailings and couriers.

Stored Sample Costs

The projected cost for Stored Sample Storage Costs for 2005-2006 is $1,198/month, or $10,782 for the budget period.   This amount is based on last year’s costs and will be updated if necessary.  Consideration is being given to the disposal of these samples .

Appeal Cases - Travel

CBS does not anticipate, at this time, travel for appeal cases.   However, should an appeal arise that requires CBS representation, travel expenses would be submitted under separate cover.
