The Closure Question

The Prime f\liuil~ter has given notice of his motion to mmove clo- Iuro from the (‘nmmons book of t'lll9< fln the xrixflom of this, .x.:r\'s the Uttaua .lourn.'il, llicre ought to be considerable debate. Closure was abused by tho Liberal gov- ernruenl last 3cm‘ in that it was applied nrbiti-:n'il_\ before timc had been given for discussion. It re» mains I fact that the business of H10 country. when imported by un- I‘P.Fl.\()IlHl*)lP "_\lum~\\;q|. ling" on an lS.<ll€', mu) be hctlcr done if closure can be pl”opel‘l_\' ap- plied.

4 The Liberals in self-dcfcncc Sllnulfl be pr+*parc«l to explain the Idvantages of closure when the Prime Minister‘: motion is discuss- Od. If they fail to do rm. and votp for this as for othcr go\'t‘t'tm1cl‘ll proposals, their currcndcr to oppor- tunism will appear complete.

Without closure, what is left.’ Tiler? is the device known as the

“previous qucstion". lllidm‘ it p member at any linw during R de- bats may move that “the qucstjon be now put". No nmendmcnt ls pcrmltted tn this motion and if it is Ipproved the main motion undcr consideration must he put at once.

This rule is dexitzncd to prevent the Indefinite blockade of govern- ment proposals by an endless series of amendments each of" which can be debIted. But the “previous ques- don" rule. has its limitation. with not the least of them that it may

wsrnlng to any future government that they will employ. let alone abuse. closure or the "previous question" at their pcril. But thIt does not say that I government's Iu- lhority to dcal with an emergency situation for the national good should be removed enlixvly.

Price Supports

'l'lio- ncu farm price support pro- gram as outlined by Agriculture Minister llarkness is I step in the right direction. It does not go quite as far as the prc-election promise to consider the establishment of parity farm prices - prices. that is. which would insure farmers I fair income regardless of incrcasc in costs of pmduction; but it does make an attempt to bring I reason- able measure of stability to the agri- cultural indIl.\ti‘_\ as I uholc.

Tho "kc_\ coninioditics“ undcr ulnch there \\lll be m;indalor_\ price floors were not listed in the prepar- atory l‘P.<nlulinn. I-I\‘idcntl.\', that is a mattcr to be uorkcd out h_\' the pl'll't- slabill/.at1on board, to bc set up under the legislation, and an ad- \'isory group of farm oruani/.ation rc- prc<cnt;ili\c<. Tlicy \\lll Hll’IlU\'l cc!‘- l:iinl_\ lncludc pUl:lllil‘\‘_ and ll.ur.v and meat products. lIl‘Ill.\' in \\lIl(‘ll local producers have I particular in- tcrcst.

’l‘hc lormula .\‘o pcr cent of llll‘ a\'er:-igc price of the tlirce prc«-c<l- ing years is Sllh_)t"('l to some critic- ism, in view of the fact that the last three )r‘ar.< lime not, in gon- eral. lN‘4‘|l good mics for l}ll'lIll"I‘.\'. llmvever. as the i\llI‘ll.\‘lt"l‘ pointed out, tho plan is I flexible one; and, no doubt, as time gncs on certain chatiucs will lmvc to be con.<idcrcd. The best thing about it is that it indicates governmental rccognition of the neccsslly of some sort of ma- q‘hlner)' for l(P<=plng f.aI‘in costs and farm inconies in a rc.'-wonalwle state of balance. From that standpoint, the proposed legislation can he consider- ed I distinct improvement over the agricultural pl)ll(‘ll‘S of former (lov- ernments.
