ae em A10- The Terrace Standard, Wednesday, October 20, 1993 New ministry takes hola THE REGIONAL director of a pravinclal government minislry wiped out in Jast month’s cabinet shuffle hopes to have its replace~ ment in shape soon. Gone |s the economic develop- ment, small business and rade ministry. In its place is a large employ- ment and investment ministry and a smaller one called small busi- ness, tourism and culture. It's the latter ministry which takes over in the northwest from the old economic development one, says regional director Harold Demeizer who is based here, “We are still in transition with switching responsibilities,” he said, Not affected by the new look are the five regional cconomic development officers to be placed in Prince Rupert, Stewart, Southers and Burns Lake or the regional manager’s position in Kitimat. “These will be located within the new ministry,’’ said Demet- Government agent offices across the norlhwest now come under the jurisdiction of the new ministry. Demetzer wasn’t sure if the new employment and investment ministry will have people in the northwest. , And that leaves.outstanding the issue of which government agency in the northwest will be tied in with the proposed Orenda Forst Products puip and: paper mill. Miller in better position to work on forest changes FORMER FORESTS minister Dan Milter says he's freer now to pursue changes to the northwest forest industry. Now the training, skills and labour minister, Miller commis- sioned a study on northwest mill- ing capacity in his previous port- folio. The Slanyer report, after author Roger Stanyer, indicated there is too much sawmilling and pulping capacity in the northwest for the amount of wood being cut. It was released this spring, as was a study on the North Kalum showing trees there are being cut faster than replacements are growing, They’re expected to form the basis for changes. within the northwest forest industry. Now that Miller is no longer constrained by his forests minis- ter post, he says he can act to- gether with other northern MLAs on what should happen next. “This is the first time we’ve had a report that’s looked at a whole region, where timber is THE CHOICE 1S CLEAR: 7a ‘ hos ad r Vote Natioria Dr. Isaac Sobol — Reduce | Maintain] Keep | Ensure A Create the Social Canal Tolerant ons Deficit | Programs} Together| Society BLOC Ct | quisecos | ? | ? | ? | No] ?

Miller wasn’t sure if Stanyer will continue working to help set up a regional decision making group. *We are in the process of band- ing off of some specific issues but I think you will. still see some areas in which we will be in- volved,’’ Demetzer added. His office, for example, has been looking after the long- delayed study looking at the socio-economic impacts of the Orenda project on area natives. Orenda official John Sparks said the company has becn asking how the new ministry changes af- fect the status of its request for a $100. million provincial loan guaranice. wk kkk The September shift in econom- ic development responsibilities is ‘one of a long line of changes in- troduced by the Social Credit government of the 1980s and then by the New Democrats following their 1991 election victory. Former ‘Social Credit premier Rita Johnston in mid-1991 can- celled ail government loan and subsidy programs. That policy held after the New Democrats were elected in 1991 and. there has-been no news of when specific assistance pro- grams for small or large businesses will be introduced. ~ wdmatrix: “).
