By JACK RIDDELL
MPP Huron-Middlesex
Both Opposition Leaders
participated in the Debate on the
Throne Speech this past week,.
and their main concern was the
government's failure to create
job opportunities, in view of
spiralling unemployment figures,
and mismanagement of the
provincial economy.
Liberal Leader Stuart Smith
called for personal income tax
cuts for people earning under
$15,000 a year to stimulate con-
sumer spending, and said the
Government should speed up the
Ontario Municipal. Board's
earing of Toronto's new city
Wien so that construction would
begin, thus creating jobs, He also
called upon the Government to
buy a certain percentage of its
goods and services from small
owner-managed busineefes.
Stressing that the economy and
unemployment are the major
problems facing Ontarians today,
he said "Ontario's economy is
sick...and things are not getting
any better."
The government shoUld, he
said, offer "hope and jobs to
counteract the despair, the fear
and the disillusionment of our
unemployed," particularly the
young, and offered a number of
suggestions which would be of
assistance in this connection.
With respect to the Throne
Speech, he expressed the view
that it was "constructive . . . and
acceptable to the Liberal Party,
and indicated that he would not
support the non-confidence
motion proposed by the N.D.P.
Retreating from statements he
made last fall, the Ontario
Solicitor-General has stated that
he wants to create a tribunal that
would allow police to handle the
initial investigation of complaints
against policemen. Liberal
M,P,P. Vernon Singer (Wilson
Heights) warned that to
backtrack on this issue would
provoke a confrontation with the
Opposition Parties.
He was concerned that this
would mean, that the police were
investigating complaints about
themselves. "Caesar can't sit in
judgement On Caesar", he said.
"If Mr. MacBeth has flip-flopped
because of pressure brought to
bear by the police, then I think we
have had a frustrating and
useless exercise in all this in-
vestigation."
The Government has an-
nounced that some 1,650 civil
service jobs in Metro Toronto are
to be relocated in Kingston and
Oshawa, as part of a move by the
Province to "Go East". The Costs
of moving staff and of extensive
travelling back and forth to
Toronto during the early months
is expected to be $9-Million to $10-
million. No estimates have been
given of the costs of having new
office buildings constructed or of
long-term leases with private
developers.
At least three years will elapse
before staff transfers begin. The
head office of the OHIP division
of the Ministry of Health will
move to Kingston, which will
involve the transfer of more than
900 jobs. Some 750 jobs will be
involved in the move of the head
office of the Ministry of Revenue
to Oshawa. ( A $40-million bulk
storage and distribution
warehouse for the Liquor Control
Board of Ontario is to be built in
Whitby, in the Durham region.
This will be the province's largest
liquor storage warehouse and
will eventually employ about 100
people.)
The Minister of Labour has told
the Legislature that Ontario's
plans to streamline bargaining in
the province's construction in-
dustry have been delayed a year.
Apparently some 70 per cent of
the affected collective
agreements expire at the end of
this month, leaving insufficient
time to organize new bargaining
agencies before contract talks
begin.
Legislation has been in-
troduced which would give
Ontario's Provincial Auditor
additional powers to review
spending by all Crown agencies
and corporations, as well as
government ministries. It also
permits the Auditor to check how
municipalities, school boards and
hospitals spend provincial
grants. Mr. F. N. Scott who has
been Provincial Auditor since
1973 says the bill would also make
him independent of the Cabinet
and responsible only to the
elected members of the
Legislature,
"It ensures that there will be
full accountability of provincial
spending," he said. Direct
provincial spending totalled
almost $12 billion in the fiscal
year ending March 31st. While
the Provincial Auditor has no
powers to force changes in
government spending practices,
his annual report, which cites
cases of mismanagement, can be
a source of political em-
barrassment.
A Children's Services Division,
absorbing programs currently
under four provincial ministries
will be operating by July 1st. The
new division, under the Ministry
of Community and Social Ser-
vices, will have 3,200 employees
and a $275 million budget. Also
announced was a plan to create
local children's services across
the province to co-ordinate
assessment and placement of
youths living in the area.
The new division will be led by
consultant with a background in
government and private in-
dustry. Margaret Campbell,
..•
Liberal M.P.P. (St. George) who
has been prodding the Govern-
ment to improve the existing
EEMEMITRPDOZEZEZNO
network of child care services,
said that she was worried and
shocked by the appointment of
Times-Advocate, April 14, 1977
Mr.. Barnes. A management
consultant is not what we need
here. We are just going to have
some more formulae, People are
going to be slotted,' she said.
Among the many services

which would be brought under the
new division are mental health
services, training schools, ob-
servation and detention homes,
mental retardation, child abuse,
and day-care centres.
