LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY of ALBERTA [The House Met at 2:30 July 29, 1986 ALBERTA HANSARD 833 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF ALBERTA custody and open custody. Not knowing the number of alleged perpetrators that may be before the courts and the particular disposition, it's difficult to tell from one time to Title: Tuesday, July 29, 1986 2:30 p.m. another whether the secure custody will be a bit more populated at one time than the open custody. There's also a complication which I addressed during [The House met at 2:30 p.m.] my estimates the other night. It requires the judiciary's involvement to move a young offender from one level of custody to another rather than through the administrative PRAYERS system that's prevalent in the adult population. We've addressed this issue with the federal Solicitor General, requesting that he check this particular instance with other [Mr. Speaker in the Chair] provinces to find out their experience and initiate an amend• ment to the Act if at all possible. Also at the time of estimates, I indicated that there is a young offender centre head: INTRODUCTION OF BILLS being constructed in Edmonton and one in Calgary, both in excess of 100 beds, which will certainly alleviate any Bill 21 perceived problems.

MARTIN: That's precisely the problem we're talking date indicated in the September 1981 energy agreement and about, Mr. Speaker.

This teenagers who had been stabilized in special programs were Bill is required to establish the termination date and the yanked out before the end of the school year simply because grandfathering provisions. they had finished one-third of their sentence. My question is this: what steps is the minister taking to ensure that this [Leave granted; Bill 22 read a first time] policy is not stuck to in some mindless way that would hurt the young offender? head: ORAL QUESTION PERIOD MR. ROSTAD: Mr. Speaker, we always have the interests of the young offender at heart. Again I point out to the Young Offenders' Programs hon. leader that we have a number of young offenders out MR. MARTIN: Mr. Speaker, I'd like to direct the first on the temporary release program. We have not yanked, question to the Solicitor General. My question is: can the as referred to, young offenders out of educational programs Solicitor General confirm that the real reason for the recent on to temporary release at any time. decision of the minister's department that there will be automatic release of young offenders after they have served MR. MARTIN: That is simply not the truth, Mr. Speaker. one-third of their sentence has a lot more to do with [interjections] If you don't like the truth, that's too bad. overcrowding of facilities than with the rehabilitation of According to a memo I have, the correctional services young people? division circulated a legal opinion that government residential centres and group homes don't have to be licensed under MR. ROSTAD: Mr. Speaker, under the Young Offenders the Social Care Facilities Licensing Act. My question to Act the disposition of the young offender is under the control the minister: in the absence of such basic standards, how of the judiciary. We have two levels of custody: secure is the department ensuring that the rights of children to 834 ALBERTA HANSARD July 29, 1986 proper physical conditions are being protected in these MR.

The group homes tax? are very adequate and are monitored constantly by the Solicitor General's departmental staff. In no way is a young MR. JOHNSTON: Mr. Speaker, I am glad to see that the offender yanked from these programs unless the young opposition finally is concerned with the deficit.

ROSTAD: Mr. Speaker, the safety and educational The IPAC report highlights that our revenue problem is concerns of the inmates are foremost in the plans as to very much related to our energy policy. My question is where these particular young offenders are placed. It is this: will the Treasurer agree to do a study on a national unfortunate that that particular incident arose. It was not floor price of between $18 and $22 U.S. with particular from an undue mixing. There are people who have these reference to our provincial revenues, which you will make propensities in all walks of life.

The executive of our guild spends a fair amount of time and energy organizing demonstrations every month for our regular meetings as well as public demonstrations several times a year and we also put on a major demonstration coupled with a workshop each spring. We always get support from our members which is much appreciated. But it raises the question of why we do this and whether we should continue. Obviously the public demos are designed to raise awareness of woodturning and of our club and maybe attract a few new members.

    Society To Prevent Dutch Elm Disease 2009/2010 Annual Report STOPDED Chair Message - Milton Davies While it is very difficult to thank all of the individuals that have made contributions to keep Alberta Dutch Elm Disease (DED) free, on behalf of the Society To Prevent Dutch Elm Disease (STOPDED) board and its membership, I would like to thank the following partners for their annual financial support. It is my desire that STOPDED continue to be part of the solution in keeping Alberta free of DED and other exotic tree pests. I would like to specifically thank Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development, Sustainable Resource Development, Tourism, Parks and Recreation, and Municipal Affairs for their annual funding and kind support. I would also like to thank all the Agricultural Fieldman, Assistant Agricultural Fieldman, Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Canadian Forest Services, Canadian Border Services, Environment Canada, elm bark beetle trap collaborators, those that help us out with the firewood bin collection and disposal and the contractors that administrate and operate the Provincial Dutch Elm Disease Prevention Program. As the STOPDED Chair, I believe very strongly in the importance of maintaining our existing partnerships and developing new ones. Without all this support from government and all of STOPDED’s other partners, the level of vigilance we maintain would be impossible. The experience in the Provinces and other areas that are fighting DED has proven that a prevention management program is essential. Until there is a cure for DED, prevention remains our most effective form of control. Table of Contents 1. Background 2. Current DED Situation 3.
