Confidential data will be debated Representatives of at least 10 Ontario farm marketing boards will meet with Revenue Canada officials So discuss federal demands for confidential information on the incomes and production, of thousands of farmers. Robert Daudlin, Liberal MP for the riding of Kent - Essex. says the .Ottawa meeting will be held Dec. 4 to clarify the legality and reasons for the demands. He sars he has received com- plaints. from at least one board about information demands. - "It's a question of con- fidentiality and whether the boards have the authority to disclose this information:" The Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing Board and the. Ontario Federation of Agriculture are seeking legal advice on the requests. At least three boards have not complied with the federal requests - the wheat board, the Ontario Soya- Bean Growers' Marketing Board and the Ontario Burley Tobacco Growers' Marketing Board. Ross Addeman, wheat board manager, said a letter was received last month. but the board has nat released any information. "We say no, that's ab- solutely against our security.'k he said. "If a producer figures his records are not secure it's game over. It's directly a case of civil rights." The burley tobacco board received the letter in October and "we're not going to answer it." said Leon Meersseman, board .chairman. "We really ,feel we don't have any power at -all to reveal that in- formation." Some boards ve com- plied with the deral demands, such as the Ontario Flue -Cured Tob. co Growers' Marketing Boar which has submitted detailed information on incomes and production of tobacco. growers annually since 1957.
