As you know, our system of parliament is based upon centuries of tradition, both ' here in Canada, and at the Vogler of Parliaments 'Westminster in England. Our parliamentary rules are based upon many ancient privileges and precedents. Over the years, some major changes have been made, which have significantly altered the historical development of our. legislative procedures, al- though these changes have frequently occurred So quietly and smoothly that only-students of parliamen- tary procedure have• been aware of what was taking place. At .the end of the Fall Session in 1976, the Ontario Legislature adopted some 48 new procedures. These new rules were; produced by a Committee of the Legislature, based upon research and Study material and --the-many recom- Mendations of the Ontario , Commission on the - Legislature. You will 'pro:, bably remember that this ComMission was appointed in 1972, in recognition of the fact that it was neces- sary to enhance the • role of parliament and the power of parliamentarians. When these new pro- cedures r were adopted; ,it was considered advisable to , have a trial period - pro- bably one full 'session - at the end of which the Procedural Affairs Commit- • tee of the Legislature would review the situation, and .either recommend changes or the adoption, as' part of, Ontario parliamentary tract-. Won, of the new pro% cedures. Last year's Pro-.., vincial Election interrupted the trial period, and 'we began all over again when' the new Legislature recon- vened, At'this time, we are now approximately half way through the ex- ", periniental .stage, and this is, 'perhaps, a good 'Op-. portunity • tot review pro- • gresS. The Provisional Standing Orders at Queen's Park have fiad a, major effect upon' the activities of ^ the minority Legislature, „and have resulted in some interesting recent develop- ments. One of the most in- teresting and exciting changes was 'in' connection with Private Members' bills.. Previcssly, by tradition, only the Govern ment was permitted to proceed with legislation and create laws for the Statute' Books. When the new'.......procedures, were . adopted, for the first time , in Ontario's history, Private Members from all three' parties were • given the opportunity to • present legislation to be voted upon ^by the Members of the Legislature. • Several significant Private Member's Bills have •beeh introduced. LiberahJohn Eakins tabled a Bill to encourage the development of Small Business in Ontario. Lorne Maeck (Conservative)' in- troduced a Bill regarding life support systems and Evelyn Gigantes (NDP) tabled a Bill on Special Education, which also re- ceived Second Reading. Liberal Remo Mancini tabled a Bill proposing that ` the ,legal drinking age be raised to 19. Unfortunately, it has become increasingly apparent that the Govern.- ,ment has virtually no , in- tention of allowing Private Members' Bills to proceed beyond the first step in the legislative process. - However, even with the certain knowledge that the Government will not.permit Private Members' Bills to' become law, it is important that the Membera vote upon this type of proposed legislation - Bills such as Bob McKessock's on the Niagara Escarpment, and Stuart Smith's on a pro- posed "Sunset Law". At least, we now have the benefit of the recorded debates and recorded votes by Members on matters of public interest. Another provisional change was the extension 'of the' Question PeriOd to one hour from forty-five minutes. This extension has allowed ,many mote Members to ask questions of Ministers. It is a positive step towards increasing the- accountability of Ministers and •allowing Members to ',express, local. and regional concerns in thhegislature.' A rule enabling Mem- bers to examine the Annual Reports of.. Agencies and Ministries • by referring these to a Standing Com- mittee has resulted in in- creased focus on several important issues. The Gevernmeries pro-. posed OHIP premium crease was sent ' to 'the Social Development Com- mittee, where Ministry of} ficials were called upon' to 'account for the need to increase premiums by an enormous .37.5°A. When it • became apparent that there Was considerable dotibt as to the need for such a large increase,' this percentage was cut in half. Only the new rules made this ef- fective detailed examin- ation of the matter possible. This same technique was also used to conduct an ,examination of pricing practices by. the food chains. The committee re- commended to the Govern- ment that a public inquiry be conducted into dis- counting practices. Still to get underway is an ex- amination of safety features. at Ontario- Hydro's nuclear . plants - a probe which was . also established,. under the new rule. ' For the most part, the new rules were intended to provide Members of the Legislature of all Parties with easier access -to in- formation on the operatio of the Government, It wa felt ,that better governpie _would result from enablin, the Member's to become better inforthed. Many of the rule changes may • be considered of a mere "housekeeping" nature, but these allow Members and staff to be better organized and more efficient. Plans , for legislation are announced a week in advance. The time-- table for the examination of spending estimates is • ' determined through , all- "party consultation and is rigidly adhered to through- out the , Session. Also through ,consultation, com- mittee timetables are established far in advance, epabling, Members to divide their time between House, Committee and Constituency . re- sponsibilities. = .
