Tuesday, 50 a•• By JACK RIDDELL MPP Huron-Middlesex In mid-December, Provincial Auditor Norman Scott tabled his report for the year ended March 31st, 1976. As a result of in- formation contained in this Report, the Government plans to introduce legislation this spring to• deal, with the question of ownership. of ,private medical laboratories by .doctors, giving rise to conflicts of interest, The Government has been promising the regulations since last spring. The Provincial Auditor said in his report that the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) has paid out millions of dollars in claims without properly checking their validity. He states that existing legislation makes prosecution on fraud charges almost impossible. •GOvernMent .', 'and medical. profession rules , been too lax in permitting doctors to 'operate private labs which have' made claims on OHIP, which according to July 31st records cover 12,748,793 participants in the plan, although the province's population a year before was only 8,226,000. Apparently the Medical Review Committee of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario—setup in 1971 to.rule on cases of improper payment — has yet to issue decisions on 175 cases, some dating back to 1974, The Review Committee recommended recovery of money in 115 cases, but no action in 254 others, failing to explain its decisions when OHIP evidence of improper payments was rejec- ted. One possible explanation for delay in settling cases which come before the Review Com- mittee is the fact that many cases are extremely complicated. One physician was ordered to repay the Ontario Health Insurance Plan a total of $489,000, according to the Auditor's Report, which devoted 14 pages to the Health Ministry and abuses of the $800 million OHIP fund. No reason is given for the Review Committee's order for the repayment of $489,000. During its five years of,• operation in the Committee 'has recovered $1.1 million. The Auditor also reported that overpayment of family benefits by theMinister of Community and Social Services has passed the $19 million • mark. The largest amount - $8,6 million represents unrecovered portions of over- payments that were outstanding when recipients were cut off. Administrative errors were blamed or $857,000 of the losses during the past three years and legal action is being considered in another 86 cases for which overpayments total $563,000, At least $70,000 has apparently disappeared in the form of replacement cheques for others that have been lost or un- delivered. The Provincial Auditor also discloses that although the government has a building full of meeting rooms at Queen's Park, the Ministry of Culture and Recreation prefers the comfort and service of Toronto hotels, During the past year, this. Ministry ran up a tab of $18,466 holding 40 meetings at 16 city hotels. "Some of the billings did not indicate the purpose of the. meeting nor the names of those attending," said the Auditor, "We recommended that the facilities of the Macdonald Block (the Queen's Park meeting centre) be used for meetings whenever possible and that the Ministry develop standards and guidelines to regulate the cost of food and beverages provided at meetings, luncheons and other hospitality-related functions," Old Fort William, being built for the Ontario Government as a tourist attraction in Thunder Bay; has cost more thari twice the originally budgeted price. The cost to the end of last March 'stood at $12.7 million. The construction contract signed fiveyears ago was for $5.5 million, subject to an increase of not more than ten per cent and increases due to inflation. By MARY ANN KOBUZ Director As you are aware the Huron Volunteer Bureau has now been operating for three weeks. During this time many people have called with questions about our function in the community. We now hope to give you some answers, Here are some of the major questions: If I need personal assistance what should I do? How can I be of service in my community? What type of services does my com- munity need? Is the Bureau in- terested in the activities of my group or service club? Do I have the ability to help in some small way? Perhaps the Huron Volunteer Bureau can help you with answers to some of these questions. Pee wees on scoring spree The Exeter pee wees went on a scoring spree Sunday at the Huron Park arena as they swamped Clinton by a score of a1- 3 in an exhibition contest. David Shaw who led the Exeter club with a four goal per- formance opened the game scoring at the 20 second mark as he converted a pass from Bill Glover. Only 40 seconds later the score was 2-0 with Bill Glover firing a successful shot on a pass from Mike Clark. Before the first period was over David Shaw notched his second goal on a pass from Steve Riddell and Scott Pincombe hit the mark with passing help from John Kernick, The Exeter club scored four times in the middle frame. The marksmen were Bill Glover, Mark Vandergunst, John Kernick and Steve Riddell. Assists went to Mike Clark, David Underwood, Bill Glover, Scott Pincombe, Scott Brintnell, Mike Murray and Scott Batten. Costs have also run far over approved limits in a related project. The Government agreed to have a university prepare manuscripts and technical reports on the fort, setting a limit of $200,000. By the end of March, the cost had hit $242,000. In another controversial project in Northwestern Ontario, costs of buying and renovating Minaki Lodge have Mt $9.4 million. The Province bought the lodge in 1974 to protect Northern Ontario Development Cor- poration loans on the property when the owner was unable to meet mortgage payments. The Report also reveals that the Government gave an ex- Deputy Minister, seconded to serve as Chairman of the Regional Municipality of . Sud- bury, $23,375 in severance pay when he resigned over a dispute with a council member. He was subsequently dismissed from Government service, after 27 years of employment with the Province, and was given no explanation for the dismissal. People need people. People who are willing to give a couple of hours of their time a week. Time to take a disabled person swimming, time to be a big brother to some young boy, time to be a special friend to someone who doesn't get out and make new friends because of a han- dicap or illness. We need people who are willing to give a bit of themselves to make another person happy. It could make your day a bit brighter to know you've helped someone who genuinely needed that help, and appreciated it. To those special people who need someone, don't hesitate to make that need known, There are people who want to help, who feel they have the time and resources to offer. We at the Volunteer Bureau are here to get you together, If someone would like to spend a couple of hours swim- ming, how about calling us, we'll get a friend to accompany you. Do you feel shut-in? Would you like to have someone to talk to, a friendly visit some afternoon. Call us, we'll arrange it. Do you need help getting into town for an afternoon of shopping or to a doctor's appointment?

Apparently, in the fiscal year 1975.76, the public interest necessitated the spen- ding of $289,905,005 by this means, There were 93 separate orders for amounts, ranging from $15,000 to $57 million.
