dispatchers ms mccauley said thats 10 staffers fewer than are now employed at three existing centres in vaughan richmond hill and markham ms mccauley also predicted lower administration and capi tal costs for an amalgamated call centre staffing costs are estimated at 16 million less than the 25 million the three dispatch centres will cost to staff according to projections hopes have been
