Industria I Development aJo hn white Regional Counicil should control industrial develop- ment according to John White, Provincial Treasurer. White, in a recent letter to Whitby Counicil, said 4 the provincial goverment "con- siders that the ultimnate power for industrial develop- ment should be vested with Regional Council". He said that this would "&ensure proper planning and co-ordinatioli of development thr oughout the whole of the region" This, in turn would "elini- mnate rivalry within the region for tax dollars", White said. He continued that "the regional 'forrn of govmrment is not inteîided to be simiply a service deliverer, but aiso a resource nmanager." It is therefore imperative that the powver to disseminate information and acquire ini- dustriai sites remlain with in the purview of Regionai Counicl" White said. .'Further, 1 amn sure that the apparent inequalities des- cribed ( by Whitby Counici) with respect to sclîool tax rates reduction are only a short terni effcct of regional government". lie added.
