session the long est in its history i think it was probably the most prod uctive in the way of legisla tion and new programs i by way of example the i house approved about 194 government bills plus a num ber of private bills from mun icipalitics in onuno some i of the important legislation is as follows medical services insurance act medicare amendments to highway traffic act re negligence n surance and safely features and ehecks for motor vehicles licensing and rcjrulalmg- of nursing homes new department of finan cial and commercial affairs important amendments to the labour relations act the securities act which contained 149 sections new metro toronto bill act to establish a consum er protection bureau air pollution control ac commuter services act 1965 new child welfare act and act to revise the homes for retarded children ac to amend t ontario tiutucidal employee retire ment system act omers pension plan crop insurance for agric ulture 4 act to promote ambulance services and improve their standards ft act to amend the conscrv ation authorities act act to provide for protect ion of buyers of consumer goods and for the pair dis closure of cost of credit act to deal with amalga mation of municipalities and regional development and government new milk marketing act bill to provide educational loans to school boards and municipalities for financing school construction as mentioned these are some of the main bills that we considered during the past six months unfortunately we also had to increase the sales tax from 3 to 5 and also increase taxes on liquor gas oltne and tobacco however there does no seem to be any other solution if we are to provide the schools highways hospitals police courts universities etc as well as the facilities dealing with labour
