- Whereas this General Synod recognizes that inadequate housing is a major factor in the breakdown of family life and a contributory cause of crime and juvenile delinquency;
- And Whereas in spite of the great assistance given by Federal and other Governments since the close of the war (which this Synod has already welcomed and commended), General Synod notes with concern that the construction of new housing still barely meets the need created by the arrival of new settlers and by the general formation of new family units;
- Therefore, Be It Resolved that this General Synod, while heartily endorsing a continuation of the policy of low cost and low rent housing aid by Governments, urges Diocesan Synods and other groups of church people to encourage utilization of Section 16 of the National Housing Act which provides loans up to ninety per cent of the lending value of a project to limited dividend companies, for the construction of low-rental housing. CARRIED in both Houses.

- 1. That General Synod, firmly of the opinion that a continued generous policy of Immigration is both wise and necessary, respectfully requests the Federal Government to strengthen the appeal to prospective settlers by instituting more adequate planning in respect of the reception accorded them at ports of entry, their absorption in industry and their earlier eligibility for our social insurances and services.
- 2. In addition, the Synod recommends that specific measures of assistance be extended to help meet the passage and settlement costs of settlers here from the United Kingdom in line with arrangements offered to Commonwealth countries by the British Government.
- 3. Further, as an acknowledgement of their British citizenship and as an aid to the economy of the British West Indies, the Synod urges that a greater number of their population be encouraged and permitted to settle in Canada.
- 4. The Synod is constrained to draw attention to the deplorable plight of many refugees and displaced persons and would impress upon congregations and parish organizations the need for sponsoring groups for the care of such refugees, either through the World Council of Churches or otherwise. CARRIED in both Houses.
