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 committee was established July 2, 1981 and was chaired by James A. Taylor. The committee's 163 recommendations were largely incorporated into the Pensions Benefits Act in 1987 (Bill 170). Changes to the act included new conditions for membership, portability of pensions, inflation protection and use of plan surpluses.
