This week's Throne
Spee-% opened the Third
Sess.on of the 31st Parli-
ament.
The speech, read by Lieu-
tenant Governor Pauline
McGibbon before a packed
Legislature, promised every-
thing from more handouts to
industry, stepped-up
apprenticeship training,
buses for the disabled,
commitments to national
unity, a substantial increase
in tourist promotion, to a
better program of food price
monitoring.
Free drugs for senior citi-
zens will be continued. In
addition, the government
promised that services for
chronically ill patients who
want to live at home will be
extended, and a "significant
number of beds will be added
to the system for persons
needing long term nursing
home or chronic hospital
care."
A special board of provin-
cial Cabinet Ministers will
administer an employment
development fund to give
incentives to industry to
create jobs. The program is
expected to cost about $200
million. The government will
be looking at companies with
long term growth potential,
Industry and Tourism
Minister Larry Grossman
said the fund is "an attempt
to speed up the process" of
assisting medium sized
Canadian firms to change
their product lines, modern-
ize plants, get into export
business or more researich
and development.
Other highlights of the
speech include:
,—Legislation to protect
children in custody
—Amendments to the.
Labour Relations Act to cut
the costs of arbitration
—Lumber companies will
be responsible for forest
management, while govern-
ment maintains responsib-
ility for productive forest
lands
—A $58 million five-
year cost-sharing agreement
with the federal government
will demonstrate new tech-
nology in energy conser-
vation and regeneration.

Jack Riddell (Huron-
Middlesex) and I, along with
others in the House, have
asked the Minister of Health
about the difficult situation
encountered by area hosp-
itals in regard to bed cuts.
The Minister indicated that
there will be adjustments
made in the program, and
that additional chronic beds
will be allowed in areas of the
province that have aged
populations above the pro-
vincial average of 8.6%.-
13.3% of the population in
Bruce County is 65 years of
age and over, and 12,95 of
the population in Huron
County is in that category.
Hopefully, adjustments can
be made to account for that.
The Minister has indicated
that he will be working
through the Health Councils,
where applicable, or, where
there is no Health Council,
he will deal with hospitals on
an area basis where there is a
request for consideration for
additional chronic ,teds. In a
lot of cases in HuFon-Bruce,
the problem would be greatly
relieved if a switch from
active to chronic beds were
approved, rather than clos-
ing out the beds entirely.
