    History

    Select Committees are ad-hoc committees of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario with specific terms of reference to investigate and report on a specific issue.

    The Select Committee on Electoral Reform was comprised of six government members, two members of the Official Opposition and one member from the Third Party. It was tasked with presenting its final report to the Legislative Assembly no later than November 3, 2005. Over five months, it engaged in an intensive study of electoral systems, aided by the testimony of experts from the academic and political communities. The Committee also traveled to British Columbia and to several places in Europe to learn about electoral reform in other jurisdictions.
