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. This select committee was established November 24, 1977 and was chaired by Donald C. MacDonald. The committee's work resulted in the cessation of construction of one of the Bruce plants (although construction later went ahead), approval of purchase contracts from Denison Mines and Preston Mines, and a rate increase on electricity.
