IWPS has carefully managed its limited resources in order to ensure IWPS’s continuation and has under-spent the original budget for the first year. However, it is clear that expenditure will rise in the next two years. This is due to several factors:- a) the necessity to ensure adequate health insurance for all Team Members, b) increasing the number of Team Members in the House to 5  to enable better continuity and hand-over time and to prevent burn-out of Team Members, c) hiring of a lawyer to deal with arrests and deportations.

 

Based on average monthly spending at the new budget-level IWPS has enough funds to cover the next 7 months and is looking for funding to cover the last 17 months.
