expressed a concern with the new
Adequacy Standards, that small
forces would not be able to meet
the guidelines. Dore, however, said
the government has said it is not
going to disband small forces. He
admitted though that the biggest
difficulty for him in hiring more
staff if needed is that they must be
experienced. "I can't bring on
recruits. I have people interested,
but we're still waiting to see if it's a
go"
Listing the number of forces in
the areas to the east and north of
Huron, Dore said he could see a
regional force being formed within
the next five years which would
extend from Blyth north.
White also asked about the
administration of provincial offens
es action which sees the municipal
ity collecting income form tickets.
Dore said he was being phased in
and while the municipality gets a
percentage of the income from tick
ets, they will be assessed for court

costs."The income should take care
of any expenses, though."
A regional force would also
enforce municipal bylaws such as
parking and noise. "Council has the
authority to draw up any bylaw and
we would enforce it if requested."
A regional force would have a
joint board and an advisory council.
He also expressed interest in using
the municipality's ESO office.
"My concern now is getting a let
ter saying that the provincial office
will not be responsible for extra
costs. Everything hinges on that."
Reeve Gord Workman added that
the message was clear that this is
not something to jump into.
Dore agreed saying that if the
proposal with Wingham goes ahead
