Duff's to tape
church services
The session of Duff's United

anyone wishes the Sunday morn-

recording tape to be taken to the
sick, shut-ins or hospital pat-
ients, they are to let Rev.Docken

During debate on the Budget
this week, I tried to convey
to the Government that if they
are adamant about going ahead
with Regional Government , they
should consider Bruce and Huron
Counties as separate ,areas. In
other words, the present County
boundarieS should be used, and
any regionalization should take
place within the respective
County boundaries. The Trea-
surer has indicated that this
would require a change In the
present yardsticks used to set
up regional government, but this
is, 'of course, not impossible.
T o set up area as large as
the Government has been doing
in this current programme of
regionalization, would be com-
pletely unworkaribte-and unsatis-
factory for the people of. our
area, in my view.
Supplementary Government
Estimates of $205,574 500mere

A number of amendments to
The Dental Technologists Act
1972 have been introduced, and
discussion continues on this Bill
which would establiSh a *nee
dental auxiliary to deal directly
with the public. Dr. Potter,.
the Minister of Health, has stated
that one of the Main government
aims in licencing denturists is
to make it possible for the pub-
lic to obtain quality dentures
as economically as possible. The
Ontario Dental Association and
the College of Dental Surgeons
have now made a submission to
the Government that they .are
prepared to guarantee the provi-
sion , of a full normal, standard
set of dentures at a current
cost of $180, with any future
increase subject to negotiation.
Robert Nixon, Liberal Leader,
said that this commitment from
the Dentisks should he incor-
porated in the legislation con-
trolling the practice and licen-
cing of denturists.
The N,D.P.'s MortonShulman
made allegations about violence
and extortion in the construction
industry, and Robert Nixon has
asked for a Royal Commission
enquiry into these allegations.
During discussion of this matter,
Dr. Shulman made statements
about Attorney General Dalton
Bales, which he later withdrew.
