Bill will aid farm finances
Agriculture Minister John Wise tabled in
the House of Commons a bill to establish debt
review boards that will assist farmers in
financial difficulty.
The legislation, when passed, will set up
boards with the power to review the situation
of farmers facing insolvency and will provide
fora stay of proceedings by all creditors while
the review is being carried out.
The boards, first announced in the
February budget, will establish panels made
up of financial and farming experts to advise
farmers on restructuring their debts and help
them negotiate alternative arrangements
with creditors. Once agreed to by all parties,
any arrangements reached will be legally
binding.
"This Government recognizes the pressing
financial circumstances many farmers are
facing and we are co fident this review
process will result many reasonable
settlements between f ers and creditors,"
Mr. Wise said.
Under the legislation, a farmer in serious
financial difficulty can apply to the review

building is to be situated at the back of the
town hall. The contract price is in the
neighborhood of $1,100. The expectation is
that hydro power will be available here some
board set up in his or her province. The board
will then notify all creditors and issue a
30 -day stay of proceedings on behalf of the
farmer. The stay may be extended for two
further 30 -day periods, if needed.
The bill also requires secured creditors to

"We are optimistic the legislation will be

added. "As soon as possible after that, we
will have the boards in place and ready to
