The Commission considered the possibility of liquidating the whole issue and asking the districts con- cerned to arrange their own tin- ancing for the it allocated to them.

This solution was abandoned be- cause it was found that the Bond Issue was non-callable and in any event would have entailed much higher interest charges. ADMINISTRATION

In View of the non-callable nat- ure of the Bond Issue. it will be necessary that some form of Div- ision administration be maintain- ed during the life of the issue. After the present year's operat- ions are wound up and the new school districts functioning. it does not seem reasonable that the present system of administration be continued. Wc.t liercfore. re- commend that, under the author- ity given the Minister of Educat- ion by the School Act. respecting the continuance and constitution of the Division Trustee Board. he appoint an oiiicial of the Depart- ment of Education as the sole trustee for School Division No. 1 with authority to receive and col- lect all amounts payable by the newly created districts in respect to the outstanding Capital 1131,11. ities allocated to them.

'it is also recommended that the G0V9"lme"l Day to such trustee the Fifty Thousand Dollar Grant.

We recommend that this amount be placed in Temporary Loan Cer- tificates of the Province of Prince Edward island which yields a rate similar to that borne by the out- standing bonds The trustee should withdraw annually from this Fund the difference between the amounts due by the several dis- tricts for Principal and Interest, and the amount required to ser- vice the issue.
