Board Jurisdiction

OTTAWA tCPI The chair» man of the government‘s pro- :posed Atlantic Development

Board will get more than $3.000 a year. after all. Opposition members in the

Commons had pounced on this. figure—the other four part-time board members would not be. salaried at all—as indicating. tn_ them. that the government isn't ' serious about the board's work.

“i agree 100 per cent that it. is a ridiculous figure." revenue Minister John Flemming said in Friday‘s debate. ‘

He said he will propose an amendment under which the jcabinet will decide what the salw ‘ary will be. He. said the $3.000 looks like something that would be paid for a stenographcr.

H .J. Robichaud tL—Glnu- wtestet‘l said that Atlantic area projects resulting from the ad-‘ visory board's work should be regarded as money invested—— .not money handed out.

“I couldn't agree more," said .‘the minister.

f Mr. Flemming. ex - premier ‘of New Brunswick who is steer- ‘ing the legislation through the Commons. thus continued his attempts to cooperate with the. opposition and bring the board into being.

LITTLE PROGRESS

However. little' progress was mad Friday. The. bill re- tmained in the committee stage.i n which individual clauses are considered. So far the house has ‘not reached the real substantive lections.

give-and-take far.

0 Mr. Piekersgill said that the

former Argus Corporation ex- ecutive used to gobble up fam- ily businesses.

Another stumbling block to progress on the bill—the pro- posed causeway between New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.

Mr. Pickersgill noted that on Wednesday. Mr. Flemming said the causeway had ccptcd in principle by the gov- ernment and was in “the plan- ning stage." yet was listed among the projects for urgent consideration by the proposed board.

RECALLS PM's SPEECH

“Odd.” said Mr. Pickersgilla especially in view of Prime Min- istcr Diefcnbakcr’s pro-election statement to a Charlottetown audience. that "we are proceed- ing with it."

The board would handle re- search into causeway planning. said the minister.

Mr. Pickersgiit said he. didn't blame, the minister for at— especially after "the ground was cut from under him“ by former works minister Walker who. without telling Mr. Flem- ming, went to the Maritime: and said the Chignecto Canal was not economically feasible.

“There is no reason whatever why the Prince Edward Island causeway should engage for one

minute this board." said the Liberal MP.

r. Flemming assured the House that the government's

commitment to build the cause- way "will be carried out to the letter."

He said he recently spoke to

an engineer about work now under way and was told that whil. the causeway would be difficult. it could he. built. and would he. a wonderful engineer- ing feat.
