	Regional Growth Strategy:
		A RGS establishes a consensus on future goals and priorities at the regional scale and commits the regional district and affected municipalities to a course of action to meet common social, economic and environmental objectives.
		The CRD's RGS process is based strongly on the principle of reaching political agreement between the CRD and its member municipalities on priorities and directions for the future.
		At the end of the four year process, the CRD will possess a mechanism to work with its member municipalities on matters of mutual concern, and cooperate with each other and the province on initiatives to take the region closer to a mutually preferred future.

	Case Study - Immunization Information System
		Because of the distances between district offices, the deficiency of a master child index for the Capital Regional District, and the multiple ancillary documents to the Child Health Record which are filed separately, average retrieval time for an out-of-office record is commonly two weeks.
		If the child goes to school in a health district other than the district of origin, the CHR is withdrawn from the file at origin and "signed out" to the appropriate district office which has jurisdiction over the school.
		The Capital Regional District can change its procedures once again provided reporting requirements to the Ministry are fulfilled and the CHR's can be generated on demand should a client move to another region of the country.

	Private Prosecution of Capital Regional District - Background
		The Capital Regional District is being taken to court by the UFAWU because of the union's concerns about ongoing damage to fish and shellfish habitat by the continued dumping of untreated sewage.
		However, Environment Canada and the provincial Ministry of Environment have been pressing the CRD for years to implement primary sewage treatment immediately, and to follow that with secondary treatment within 15 years.
		Had the District complied with those requests, the region would now have secondary sewage treatment and would no longer be in the embarrassing position of being one of the region's worst marine polluters.
