Whenever | hear people talking

j about Government waste, the MPs’

pension plan, MPs’ parks, and MP's’

{travel are usually right at the top of
1 the list. However, few people know

how much fs spent on the running of
Parliament or what percentage of the

i total federal budget it consumes.

There is no doubt that the MPs’

“gold plated” pension plan needs to
sbe scrapped and replaced with

something similar to that found in the
private sector, but my feeling is that
most of the other costs of running
our Parliament are net really out of

i line.

THE 1994/95 ESTIMATES
The financial estimates tabled by
the Finance Minister last February

} put the House of Commions budget
ffor this year at $238,450,000. This

sum seems targe at first glance but it

f actually represents just one sixth of
Fone percent (0.15%) of the $165
| billion total Federal! budget. It covers

all of the following:

- MPs’ salaries, MPs’ travel, and all
MPs’ expenses,

- Office and staff costs in Ottawa and
the Ridings for all 295 MPs

+ Salaries of Officers of the House of
Commons

| - Contributions to the MP pension

plan
| - Contributions to employee benefit

plans

} - Administrative and legal services to

the House of Commons
- Grants to parliamentary associations
- All support services such
as messengers, transportation,
security, traffic control on the
Hill, cleaning and maintenance,
printing, phones and other
telecommunications, furniture re-
pair, etc.

If we could completely eliminate

yall of the above functions,

“THE COST OF PARLIAMENT

(which some might say would be a
blessing) total Federal Government
expenditures would only drop from §
$165 billion to $164.76 billion. Sorry
folks, eliminating Parliament and ail
of the MPs, their staff, travel and 5
office costs would NOT solve the
daficit problem. ;

To put things in perspective it is
interesting to note that the taxpayer
SUBSIDY for transit in Greater §
Vancouver last year was around §
$220,000,000. That is close to 92%
of the entire cost of running §
Parliament with ail of the MPs, their §
staff, supplies and offices. However, |
the cost of Parliament is fairly stable §
while the Vancouver area transit
subsidy has been rising rapidly -for §
the last few years. It will quite likely f
soon exceed the cost of running }
Parliament.

MP PERKS

Virtually all of the traditional MP
“perks” have now been eliminated
thanks to the lobbying of Reform §
MPs after arriving in Ottawa. There }
are no longer shoeshines or }
subsidized haircuts, and most of the 3
cafeteria prices are on par with, or
higher than, similar downtown §
restaurants, Also, many Reform §
MPs, like myself, have taken a |
voluntary 10% cut in pay which we
donate to charity or the deficit
reduction account. The only major
“perk” we have not yet managed to §
get rid of is the pension plan. Reform
MPs still regularly demand that the §
Prime Minister allow us to oot out but j
so far he has refused, and in
November a large group of Liberal
MPs will qualify for pensions for life. j
Perhaps the PM has been waiting for
this important qualification date to
pass before he changes the plan for j
the rest of us!
