thursday september 21 1972 the tribune page 3 premiers new policy leaves major loophole by donald m deacon mpp yorkcentre yorkcentre on thursday ontario premier william davis announced a strict code of rules governing the finan- cisl holdings of his cabinet ministers rules which he said would be the toughest in the world mr davis may think these rules are tough but in fact he has merely attempted to alleviate the symp toms and not cure the disease the major concern of mr davis proposals is with land speculation and land deals and he proposes to require all ontario cabinet ministers to disclose publicly the land holdings of themselves and their families and to prohibit them from purchasing land or interest in a land development com pany but he has left a rgajor loophole the government and public agencies supported by the province should disclose from whom land is purchased or leased including the principal share holders of corporations which may be involved and the cost and date of purchase by the vendor they should also disclose similar information about any transfers of the af fected lands for the previous four years such disclosure would effectively inhibit the use of prior in formation by insiders in order to make a profit from the public purse such a principle of disclosure is similar to that which i in troduced on may 1 1972 in the form of a private members bill no km relating to insider trading in securities the government failed to act upon that initiative and it has now failed to initiate action which will inhibit privileged friends from planting both feet firmly in the public trough in fact the government has side stepped the main issue completely as long as land speculation continues to be rampant in ontario no conflict of interest legislation can be sufficiently effective in removing the conflict of interest problem the fact that you cant lose if you buy land has led and is leading to many abuses in the area of land development and speculation legislation in land deals would be much more meaningful if it were accompanied by a government program to ensure that there is an over supply of serviced land available for new housing development without such government action the wild spiral of prices and speculation in land will continue and the temptation to use privy information in order to make a quick buck will also be present rather than punishing the sinners mr davis would be better to remove the temptation to sin only in this way can the proposed conflict of interest rules become meaningful editors mail postal privileges abused

received from john roberts was not a news letter by any stretch of the imagination unless it was to reveal our mps name it could more ac curately be described as historical and very limited in con tent it contained a thankyou that an election took place four years ago that he was our mp and had taken roots in the riding the latter statement could change after oct 30 in my opinion the free mailing privilege has been abused by mr roberts he should be required to cover this expense out of current campaign funds free mailing is intended to keep constituents abreast of news and only as such
