Frank Thompson Fred Stephenson Ontario Hydro can now sell steam This amendment is espe-' cially important to the devel- opment of the Bruce Energy Centre, as it will, permit Ontario Hydro to sell steam or hot water to the Ontario Energy Corporation as part of the scheme to develop industries, greenhouses, and fish farms at the Bruce Energy Centre. The Minister of Consumer and Commercial Relations introduced legislation which was rapidly pushed through three readings within an hour of its introduction. The bill freezes the $378,000 profit realized from the sale of two Metro Toronto proper- ties bought with funds from the now defunct Co-operative Health Services Organiza- tion. In effect, the bill will do something the Supreme Court of Ontario recently refused, to do, in that in prevents Co-Op's fired gen- eral manager and lawyer from taking the money held in trust at Mon treal Trust. Thousands of subscribers lost hundreds of thousands of from Queen's Park MURRAY ELSTON M.P.P. (HURON-BRUCE) Legislation which would allow two major GILD pro- grams to proceed received second reading Tuesday. The bill was originally introduced by the Minister of Energy May 28. One aspect of the bill quthorizes Ontario Hydro to undertake a Residential Energy Advisory Program (REAP) which will encourage greater efficiency, conserva- tion and safety in the use of electrical power in homes. Ontario Hydro will offer ad- vice and inspection services to homeowners, as well as providing loans of up to $2,000 at attractive interest rates for the purpose of installing equipment and ma- terial in accordance with REAP. A second aspect of the bill gives Ontairo Hydro the au- thority to produce, sell, sup- ply and deliver heat energy, such as steam and / or hot water, a§Nkyrimary product of that corporation.

CONSOLIDATED HEARINGS Legislation providing for the consolidation of hearings is currently before the Just- ice Committee, after receiv- ing second reading. The Committee is currently deal- ing with many interest groups' protests which have arisen due to the bill's quick passage. It is expected the legislation will be reported to the House June 23, at which point it will receive third reading. In situations where there would have been separate hearings under individual acts, the Consolidated Hear- ings Bill provides that a single hearing would be held on all matters under the various existing acts. The bill is applicable to twelve acts, including the Environmental Assessment Act, the Environmental Protection Act and Ontario Municipal Board Act. The passage of the Consol- idated Hearings. Act would mean that, instead of holding a number of separate hear- ings on the proposed trans- mission lines from the Bruce Nuclear Plant, only a single hearing would be held to deal with all matters.

INSURANCE INCREASES The Minister of Consumer and Commercial Relations has stated insurance com- panies are justified in raising car insurance premiums by up to 20 per cent, because provincial government moni- toting shows that the cost of claims has far surpassed the rates. Mr. Walker says con- sumers have been getting a bargain in auto insurance over the past few months because of the skyrocketing cost of repairs. Acfording to an investiga- tor of medical care at Toronto East General Hospital, the Ontario Government was al- ready planning se cretly to give itself the power to take temporary control of public hospitals even before it knew visited Edna Currie in Hamilton and Alma Brown, Burlington Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Walter the results of the inquiry. In late May, a senior Health Ministry official ap- parently asked the commit- tee to get their report out quickly so that the legislation could be introduced. The legislation has already been tabled. Meanwhile, the Executive Director of the Ontario Hos- pital Association has accused the Minister of taking advan- tage of East General's pro- blems to justify giving the province far-reaching powers over public hospitals. The Minister expects legislation, giving the Cabinet the right to appoint one or more inspectors to investigate the administration and medical care at Ontario's 250 public hospitals, to be passed be- fore the summer recess.
