R es tructuring plan accepted hy the separate sehool board A restructuring plan, ap- proved in principal, wil see the Durham Region Roman Catholic Separate School Board trustees meet once a month and sit on two large committees. The new system, proposed by Oshawa Trustee Ivan Wallace, wiil be given a test period in 1980-81. Walace's move met with opposition from some of the trustees who felt that the move should wait until the trustees elected in the November 10 election took office December 1. Part of the criticism at- tacked the fact that the motion had been brought up at the present boards' last And Chri*stmas &Firiendly Whot couid be nicer thon a beautiful OSCfffeI Brass Iamp for thot special person on your Christmas lisi!

Ajax trustees Sally Longo and Kate Hudson botb feit that the motion had been brought Up at the rigbt time, explaining that, while, the new trustees mlght have some imput to give, they would not have the knowledge of sitting on the current cominittee. "lWe are the people who have worked with this com- mittee system," said Hud- son. It was hoped by Wallace that the proposed plan would help to spread the work load of trustees more evenly. At present he said that some commîttee are busy for a mnonth or t'wo and then left with nothing to do for the rest of the year. Trustee Jlm Brady ex- pressed bis concern that trustees placed on the management committee would have the majority of the work load on items such as salaries, finances, tran- sportation and siteswhile the education committee would deal with programs, philosophy, revlews and assesments of the system and communlty relations. "The work load it would place on trustees scares me, " sald Brady of the management committee. The new system would have the 16 trustees meeting on every third Monday of the month wlth the management committee meeting two weeks before and the education commlttee meeting the Tuesday followlng managemént. Turstees also voted on an amendinent which Would ailow the education commit- tee some say in determinlng the instructional budget. Wbile both motions were carried they were opposed by trustees Tom Simmons, Larry O'Leary and Charles Roche of Whitby. In opposing the motions, Roche proposed his own system which would see three committees, one for financial matters, another for instructional and the third for facililties and ser- vices. Should the proposed system come into being each committee would have a chairman, a vice-chairman and ad-hoc committees could be drawn Up from them to deal wlth such items as salary negotiations wîth teachers. Ail commlttee meetings will be open to the public. Retas a e s & erie 40'unjs Ise 94 s rr1t sf es*, 666,-11 9-28 '9 i
