Until now, all partners had to be Roman Catholic or Francophone and agree to do so. • The property assessment of publicly traded corporations and their subsidiaries will be shared between Public and Separate School Boards in the ,same area, and in Ottawa -Carleton by the Public, Separate and French -language School Boards, in proportion to each board's residential and farm assessment. Until now, a corporation's support for a.Separate School Board, or the French -language School Board in Ottawa -Carleton, could not -exceed the proportion of shares held by Roman Catholics or Francophones. In order to implement this.initiativc, the Ministry of ,Revenue -must amend its records to identify those business partnerships that wish to -split their school tax support, and to identify all;publicly traded -cor- porations,and their subsidiaries. .1nformation,about the new school support rules wilt be sent to you. in the,near future, along with a Notice.of-Property i aIu*tion.
