The loss of federal real estate to the City of Ottawa.

 House of Commons Ottawa September 15, 1964. Hon. Paul Martineau (Pontiac-Temiscamingue): "Mr. Speaker, I wish to direct a question to the Minister of Public Works. Can the minister tell us if the national capital commission has changed its policy with regard to the transfer of buildings to the city of Ottawa, because it now charges a $100 fee for what it used to do for $1 dollar?"

House of Commons September 18, 1964. Hon. Jean-Paul Deschatelets (Minister of Public Works) Liberal: "Mr. Speaker, while I have the floor may I answer a question put to me by the hon. member for Pontiac-Temiscamingue (Mr. Martineau)?"

"A few days ago the hon. member asked me whether the national capital commission had changed its policy in connection with the transfer of buildings to the city of Ottawa. There is no change of policy. The only change to take place recently concerns fees for easements. A $25 minimum is required. However, there may be additional amounts added to this minimum because of technical surveys, legal research, travel and other administrative costs."
