The Ministry has established emission standards for, 84 con- taminanto and criteria for desirable air quality for 23 sub- stances, including lead. The new standard for lead emission reduces the amount of lead allowed to enter the air by" 50 percent. This standard was a major recommendation put forward in a recent report by a working .group on lead. By establishing the more rigorous emission standard for lead the Government has strengthened its,, programme to control ex- ,poaure of lead pollution... to. the people of this Province. The . Minister said' it calls for the 'best control equipment 'that technology can offer. The Minister also reported that the Ministry has been'aler- vinyl chloride `hazard which first surfaced in the United States. At that time th( Ministry undertook a study o1, vinyl chloride as it affectstill ambient air. To date there hay( been no reported afflictionF among workers engaged in the vinyl chloride industry it Canada. The findings of the research have resulted in the establish ment of a criteria which limit'_ the emission fromviny chloride within safe limits. Th( Ministry has established 0.1 parts ' per million of viny chloride averaged over 24 hours as the - guideline •fol desirable air quality in the community. The Minister saic that research carried out in On• tario and the findings of studies in the United . Statel established that there is a; definite safety factor at thin level. The Honourable • Margaret Birch, Provincial Secretary foi Social Development, this ween in the t.egislature, briefly, .outlined a few,of the program mes"to beheal during Inter national Women's Year. ThE United Nations in. recognitior of the irnport•ant contribution: women have made to the economic, social and culture development of nations and tc promote . full equality betweer men and women, 'hay( proclaimed 1975 as' Inter national Women's Year. Of the series of events and special activities to creatE public awareness of the new 'roles and needs of the womer., in this Province, the' Govern- ment -of Ontario, will convene a meeting ` of representatives of labour and management, on February 18th, to focus atten- tion on equal employment op- portunities for women. Mrs. Birch said that in bn- tario 'two out of every five women are " now ,employed out; side the home. At the February meeting the Government will ask for support of both labour and management in program- mes to assist women who seek ,expanded .opportunities within the labour force. The program' will include provincial grants for amounts up to $1,000 for ,groups who plan special projects 'to celebrate International' Women's Year and the Govern- ment plans to. honour a group of women who will be nominated by their own com- munities . or organizations for outstanding achievement. Mrs. Birch indicated that during International Women's Year ' new legislation on a broad range of•subjects related to family law will be in- troduced to bolster the efforts of the Ontario Government in achieving the greatest degree of social and . 'legal equality possible in this area. This week the third report of the Camp Commission on the Legislature was tabled, and this proposes sweeping reforms of political financing, including full, disclosure of .contributions to party funds, . although no limits are proposed on the amount of money which parties or individual. 'candidates may spend in an election campaign. Of the three-man Camp Com- mission, Dalton Camp, former Progressive Conservative Party National President, Doug Fisher, previously an NDP` Member of Parliament, doub- ted that limits could be enfor- „r ed, although Farquhar Oliver, one-time Liberal Member of the Legislature, expressed the Opinion that limits would have added materially to the full ef- fect of the Commission's proposals. Limits are recommended on amounts which individuals, corporations and unions may. contribute, along with the establishment of tax credits. Contributions of more than $10 should be recorded, and the source of contributions over $100 should be disclosed. In an attempt to discourage very, e pensive campaigns, the. Com- mission proposed a formula un- der. which candidates would be able to receive up to $7,500 each from the public purse. The Report •also recommends the length of election campaigns be reduced from 37 to 30 days.
