Pensions are not keeping up with rising costs, nor are workers adequately adequately protected when they change jobs or are victims of shut-downs. The first report urges an increase increase in the province's Guaranteed Income Supple- . ment, and that further money be made available to support single pensioners. Looking at worker pension schemes, the Select Committee Committee recommended that employees should have at least one representative on the board which controls pension fund investment. The Select Committee also recommended a framework for. portability of pensiôns-to allow workers to carry pension pension benefits from one job to another. It was suggested that half an employee's accrued unvested pension , funds, as well as interest, should be moved to the next job's pension pension plan. The Committee also recommended that the pro-, vince work in concert with other provincial governments to enusre uniformity in pension pension legislation. The committee committee will be sitting again in the new year for preparation of its final report. While looking àt the pro-, blems of seniors, the Ontario . Government has also opened debate on the education of the young. The Secondary Education Review Project has issued its report recommending recommending an end to grade 13. The Ministry of Education is conducting a survey of public opinion on the school year, and over the last few weeks has been running ads in newspapers inviting individuals individuals and groups to comment. comment. Concern about this debate has been expressed by educators, especially the Ontario Ontario Public School Men Teachers' Federation. I don't believe this debate, or the results which follow, will seriously affect thé careers of the educators in the public school system.
