and in answer to a query from Alderman Ranger, Alderman Thompson, the
City's 1974 representative on the Committee, advised that its function
is to provide guidance, on a continuing basis, with respect to rehabilitation
of youngsters, advisement to the Province as to what kind of additional
facilities there should be; also, it acts as a Board of Directors in
areas where there is difficulty in the learning process with respect to
education and/or adapting to the community. Acting-Mayor Alderman
Keryluk, the City's 1975 representative on the Committee, mentioned the
make-up of the personnel being those who are very deeply involved in
working with young people - i.e. - Social Workers and Probation Officers.

where there are family problems, and Alderman Thompson advised that it
did - on a reference basis.
