 Our government is committed to helping individuals and families become more self-sufficient. For individuals receiving disability assistance, we want to ensure the supports are in place, to encourage them to work as they are able without affecting their disability assistance. Earlier this fall, we increased the earnings exemption limits to $800 per month. Now, starting January 13, we will be one of the first jurisdictions in Canada to offer the option of annualized earnings exemptions. This option will give individuals receiving disability assistance the flexibility to calculate earnings exemptions on an annual instead of monthly basis, up to a yearly maximum of $9,600. This is very good news for those whose ability to earn fluctuates due to episodic medical conditions. For 2013, we will focus on 5,000 individuals whose past earnings patterns show they are most likely to benefit from annualized earnings exemptions. All British Columbians on disability assistance will be eligible starting January 2014. We know that when barriers are removed and people with disabilities are able to fully participate in their communities, everyone benefits. Thank you.
