There have been, many allegations ;inade which I "cannot' repeat -here • inquiry, which I' asked the Attorney ..General in the Legislature, this 'week, , to consider.: , The Attorney General did not tl.l.nk, that a Judicial Inquiry was necessary but k• • to cause they lack solid documented evidence •but I thou ht the only wayto 'clear €� Iip any clouht •about the way the Governmellt coriductecl the business was, with an inquiry.

Mr. Smith, the Minister .of Corre.etianal Services, said other proposals to- take over the Guelph Centre were reJected because .those offers did not include- ' any assistance for the Essex Packers Plants in Haniilton. It is myfeeling that • a Judicial Inqui-ry, should. establish why ,the- fate of Essex was linked to' .the ^ Guelph Centre lease. The erthvi.nce had a clause in its • lease with' Essex enabling it to cancel a lease, yet it otiose- not hosenot to exercise that option. A Judicial Inquiry should., ex•>i Bine-the events leading up to the original lease with Essex. Packers to determine the. reason that Essex was chosen in the first place. The Inquiry, should examine the reasons, Why the Government failed to Cancel the lease t9 • Essex when Essex was forced into receivership by the Bank of Nova. Scotia, on October 31st. The lease'rernained with Essex until March lath, when Cabinet assigned ;t to the De longe Group:' The , Inquiry should examine the financial. records, of Essex Paelters including bank records and activities and the manner in which creditors were paid and not paid In the ,week (continued on page '19A) ALL: PRIClFS SHOWN IN THIS AD GUARANTEED EFFECTIVE THROUGH SATURDAY MAY 8, 1976 ADVERTISED ITEM AVAILABILITY ,.A&P always -stocks up heavily on adv.ertised,specials.
