' The Minister told the legislat- ure that the committee in the course of their investigation and study will consult with and invite written briefs from the following: — bhe Ontario Retail Farm Equipment Dealers Association, —manufacturers of farm equip - went and machinery, —any others who, it is felt, may contribute information or who may express a desire to make a presentation.

Bolton of MoKiltop Township is one of the tarmer members of this committee, It should be noted that the commit- tee membership includes repre- sentatives from manufacturers,. dealers and farmers, which will undoubtedly insure that fair con- sideration of bhis problem with respect to bhe overall interests of .everyone concerned is amply pro- vided for. Last week also saw the Minis- ter introduce amendments to The Dead Animal Disposal Act designed to insure that meat from fallen or dead animals will not again enter the market for liuuvan consumption. These a- mendments will strengthen the Act and are intended to insure that the Government will be able to maintain the closest scrutiny over the dead stock disposal busi- ness and safeguard the interests of the general public. The Bill provides for the com- pulsory colouring of meat cut from the carcasses of fallen or dead stook. This will identify bhe meat easily and completely. Mr, Stewart explained that this requirement will in no way hin- der rile use of such meat for legitimate purposes outside the market for human consumption. What the Government is doing is prevent the illicit offering 01 this type of meat to the public because it to now mandatory for those engaged in the dead stock business, when a dead animal is butchered, to apply powdered charcoal to the surface of .the meat and then to place it in con- taanel9 clearly marked "unfit tor human consumption The Bill also prohibits the sale of meat for human c0nsuni,ption from an establishment that is en- gaged in the processing of dead or fallen animals This will pre - vont any dead animal operation from having any relationship with, any other business connect- ed with the slaughtering of ani - Mala 04' the processing at moat for human consumption. MVir. Stewart explained that the province's Livestock Commission• er has the power to refuse to is- sue a license to any person to engage in the dead animal dispos- al business for any reason, sub.
