Lieutenant Governor sums up session
The Lieutenant Governor of the
Province of Ontario prorogued
the Third Session of the Thirtieth,
Parliament, and the following
are some excerpts from the
speech of The Honourable
Pauline McGibbon at that time.
"More than 80 bills have been
granted Royal Assent during this
period. Among them, the new
Employees' Health and Safety
Act has brought into force key
recommendations of the Royal
Commission on the Health and
Safety of Workers in Mines. The
provisions enacted so far include
establishment within a single
ministry — the Ministry of
Labour — of all responsibility for
occupational health and safety
legislation.
"Further plans are in progress
to extend the application of the
proposals at the core of the report
to include industrial safety and
construction safety, and to
produce in a comprehensive
omnibus bill an occupational
health code for working men and
women throughout Ontario."
"New legislation was in-
troduced in the fall to establish a
fairer and firmer structure of law
in dealing with matrimonial
property and in providing for
support in cases of marriage
breakdown. These family law
reforms are the culmination of
years of study and consultation
based on recommendations of the
Ontario Law Reform Com-
mission. These family law
reforms are the culmination of
years of study and consultation
based on recommendations of the
Ontario Law Reform Com-
mission. Passage of the
legislation has been postponed to
allow more time for responses
from interested parties and for
further review."
"New Select Committees of the
Legislature have been appointed
to investigate highway .safety,
transportation of goods and
corporation law, and to review
reports of the Ombudsman."
"The House also received the
final report of the Select Com-
mittee on Ontario Hydro's
proposed bulk power rates."
"At the Federal -Provincial
energy price negotiations,
Ontario put forward the position
that any price increase be related
to production costs and to in-
creasing the incentive to develop
and expand energy production. It
was, and remains, the Govern-
ment's stand that energy cost
increases should not be used as a
means of providing additional
revenues for governments at the
consumer's expense."
"At the same time, the
Government of Ontario is aware
of its responsibility in ensuring
that, throughout the province,
efforts be made to conserve all
forms of energy in everyday use..
Ontario's energy management
program to achieve savings in all
sectors of the economy is well
under way."
"Over the past year, potential
industrial energysavings of more
than $15.6 million have been
identified by the Ministry of
Industry and Tourism's "Energy
Bus" in its province -wide travels.
Insulation requirements for
housing to help conserve energy
have been defined in the new
Ontario Building Code which
came into effect on April 1st,
Energy Conservation Week,
observed from October 31 to
November 6, had appreciable
results in schools, businesses and
municipalities throughout the
province."
"A new 5 -year agreement
between Ontario and the Federal
Government, signed March 12,
ensures fulfillment of continuing
obligations on Canada and the
United States to improve the
quality of the Great Lakes. The
agreement includes provision for
prior consultation between
Canada and Ontario on all
proposals for discussion with the
United States, and places greater
emphasis than before on en-
vironmental assessment and
protection."
"Within the province, it has
been the expressed policy of the
Ontario Government to ensure
thorough consultation with the
public in issues of major long-
term significance. The Provin-
ce's economic priorities and their
protection to the end of the anti-
inflation program and beyond are
among several such questions
now facing all Ontarians."
"As announced recently, the
Government will be inviting
representatives of Ontario's
labour, business, consumer,
agricultural and social
organizations to participate in a
conference, next February 10 and
11, to be entitled "Partnership for
Prosperity". The conference will
provide a forum for discussion on
the future direction of the
provincial economy and the post -
controls period."
"Ontario's first Environmental
Assessment Board was appointed
in April to perform the essential
function of reviewing
assessments of major public
development projects that may
have significant effects on the
environment. The new Board also
assumed the activities of the
Environmental Hearing Board •

"In October, terms and con-
ditions for the proposed
development of a new integrated
forest industry complex in North-
western Ontario created a
framework for the most intensive
environmental evaluation of this
kind for any undertaking by the
private sector. This review,
under the provisions of the
Environmental Assessment Act,
1975, will be undertaken by Mr,
Justice Patrick Hartt.
"The scope of the inquiry will
encompass the social, cultural
and economic interests of Nor-
thern residents. Ultimate ap-
proval of the projected enterprise
will depend on proposals for a
comprehensive forest
management program,
satisfactory environmental
safeguards and the protection of
native rights. If approved, the
project anticipates an investment
of $400 million and the creation of
some 1,200 new jobs."
