moved for leave to introduce Bill C-432, an act to provide for the establishment of national standards for labour market training, apprenticeship and certification.
Mr. Speaker, the second bill which I am introducing today concerns the creation of joint labour-management committees to deal with labour market training on such matters as curriculum development, national standards for entrance requirements and national standards for certification in those skilled trades. It speaks to a real demand from many industries and many industry practitioners who have pointed to the need for national standards now that labour market training has devolved to provincial jurisdiction.
