The 37.5% increase in OHIP
fees which was announced by the
Treasurer in the 'Provincial Bud-
get of March 7 has *sparked
considerable debate in the Legis-
lature this week, and the NDP has
moved non-confidence on this
issue. Liberal •• Leader Stuart
Smith has stated that cannot
accept this increase, and has been
successful in having the matter-
referred to the Standing Commit-
tee on Social Development, which
will , study alternatives to the
premium increase.
The- Family Law Reform ACt
passed Third Reading in the
Legislature this week, covering a
broad range of property and
support rights for married, se-
parated and widowed people, as
well as those living common-law.
Under this new law women are
considered equal contributors to a
- marriage, and in case of, marriage
breakdown are entitled to half the
family home, along with an equal
. share of other property normally
used by family, including a boat,
summer cottage, furniture, family
. car, silverware, art, appliances-
and other goods. A woman can,
under thiS new law, go to court
and demand a share of business
assets if the judge decides she
has contributed to the financial
' success of her husband, or if the
family assets are not enough to
give her a fair share when the
marriage breaks down.
A man in financial need may
claim support from, his wife as
well. Support will be based on
need, rather than on conduct,
under this law, making it neces-
sary that a partner be judged
grossly guilty of misconduct in
'court before support would be cut
off. There is a provision also for
support orders of limited durat-
ion, making it possible for
support to he provided only until
the partner has found a job.
Other aspects of the legislation
include a provision for recognition
of private marriage contracts and
the recognition of common-law
unions, in that a couple who have
lived together for five years and
have a child are treated as
husband and wife and are respoO,

and their child, in the event of a
breakup,
Provision is alsOk made for
support Of a illegitimate, step or
foster child who is a mernber of
