22 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, December 13, 1963 Press Gallery Defends Rules For Entry OTTAWA (CP)--The Parlia- mentary Press Gallery Associa- tion argued Thursday: before) the Commons privileges com- mittee that its membership re-| quirements are the fairest and best to apply to persons seeking to use public facilities to report on Parliament and government. The association brief said that restrictions on access to these facilities arising from the mem- bership requirements are less formidable than those employed for reporters in London and Washington. The brief was presented by association President Greg Con- nolley of the Ottawa Citizen and Arthur Blakely of the Montreal Gazette as the committee con- tinued hearings into the case of Raymond Spencer Rodgers of the St. Catharines Standard who seeks access to, reporting facilities used by gallery associ- ation members, Mr. Rodgers has _ identified himself as part-time correspon- dent here of the St. Catharines newspaper.

This' enabled the as- sociation to police its members with regard to such matters as breaches of confidential docu- ments or of release times speci- fied for publication of announce- ments. Maurice J. Moreau (L--York- Scarborough) moved a motion that jurisdiction over the public facilities must be exercised by the Speaker and his delegated representatives in. the Press Gallery. The committee is to meet next Wednesday behind closed doors to consider Mr. Moreau's motion and the terms of a re- port to the Commons 3 Men Held As Members Of Que.
