His statement at the start of a two-day conference of federal) and provincial welfare minis-| ters threw open the doors for an anticipated bid by Quebec Welfare Minister Levesque to take over family allowances, "We would be particularly in- terested in any views the prov- inces might have with regard to the most effective approach to the provision of such allow- ances," Mr. MacEachen said in a statement to the conference being held behind closed doors. The federal minister's text was issued to the press. While he welcomed provincia!) comment on family allowance} programs, Mr. MacEachen also expressed the hope that there will be "considerably more dis- cussion," full study of welfare and fiscal implications and pub- lic debate before any changes are made. | Mr. Levesque has already) announced his intention of seek- ing provincial control of family allowances now paid entirely by the federal government at. vary- ing rates for children up to 18.
