Premier Davis rejected opposition pleas for a resolution to be sent by the entire Legislature to Ottawa, urging that the price of oil be kept down, Liberal MPP James Breithaupt had asked for an emergency debate to pass such a resolution, because of a large increase will hurt consumers and probably spur inflation. The Premier' responded that the federal government is already aware of Ontario's Faye Gaiser (left) of R.R. 3, Dashwood was the winner of the grand prize in Gerrrard's opening draw.

It seems highly likely that Ontario Hydro will only be allowed to build one more nuclear power station this century, instead of the four it wants, because members of the Legislature's select committee on Hydro affairs don't think they are necessary. The committee has ac- cepted a staff report suggesting that the demand for electricity in Ontario will grow by only 2 to 3 per cent a year, instead of the 4.7 per cent predicted by Hydro, A second committee recom- mendation is expected to the effect that there be a delay of four to six years in con- struction of the proposed four-reactor Darlington nuclear plant. Liberal energy critic Julian Reed has stated that the Darlington decision should be taken as quickly as possible. "The more in- volved we get financially, the more difficult it is to get out." Ontario Hydro has shelved indefinitely its plans to build a $25 million switching station in downtown Toronto. evtatii EXETER, ONTARIO P hone 235-2162 370 Main Street Illr SPECIAL 1/2 PRICE LADIES.

During the Committee deliberations on the Babcock and Wilcox boiler contract with Ontario Hydro, we were told by senior Hydro officials that there were very few problems in the steam generating system at the Bruce A generating Station at Douglas Point and for this reason, contracts for the same equipment in other nuclear stations were negotiated rather than tendered. When the Hydro officials appeared before the Com- mittee, I personally asked one of the senior officials, Mr. P.G. Campbell, whether any difficulties had been encountered with the boilers at the Bruce A Generating Station. The reply was that other than two or three leaking tubes in the boilers they were working quite well and as a matter of fact the Hydro officials were very pleased with the whole plant, including the performance of the boilers at Bruce A. However, an article ap- peared in the October 25th edition of the Globe and Mail stating that the boilers at Bruce A are creating problems and a special Task Force is meeting almost daily to decide what to do and that the problem may well take millions of dollars to solve and that the Ther- mal expansion problems in • the drums of these boilers, not the tubes were first detected when the Bruce unit was being commissioned. The same day in the Legislature, Liberal Leader Stuart Smith asked the Speaker to consider on behalf of the Members of the Legislature, whether seriously inaccurate in- formation was given to the Resource Development Committee by a senior of- ficial. In view of the conflicting reports, I moved in the Resources Development Committee that Mr. P.G. Campbell, Executive Vice President, Operations, and Mr. William Morrison, Director of Design and Development of Ontario Hydro be directed to appear before the .Standing Com- mittee on Resources Development, at its next scheduled meeting to explain the serious discrepancy between Mr. Campbell's testimony on the problems experienced at the Bruce A Generating Station on July 4th, 1979 and the reported statements of Mr. Morrison, appearing in the October 25th edition of the Globe and Mail. At the same time that the • Resources Development Committee was sitting, the Standing Social Develop- ment Committee resumed the adjourned debate on the motion for adoption of the report of that Committee pertaining to cutbacks in the healthcare system. In the spring of this year, by petition of more than 20 members of the House, the Annual Report of the Ministry of Health was referred to the Standing Committee on Social Development to consider several items, one of which was the question of hospital beds and policies with respect to the financing of hospitals. The recommendations were of such a nature to give relief to smaller hospitals such as those found in Huron- Middlesex from the extreme cutbacks which were an- nounced by the Minister. There were lengthy debates in the Legislature on the report and both the Liberals and the NDP supported the adoption of the report but the government members chose to vote against it. However, the motion for the adoption carried.
