By John Hay Ottawa up a new Law requiring majority Meni b e r s h i p for canadians on boards of directors and spell ing out duties of directors and new rights for shareholders was introduced in the com Mons wednesday by corporate affairs minister Herb Gray. The Bill which received Rou Tine first Reading would affect Only federally incorporated 10 per cent of the corporations doing business m Canada. But officials say they Are among the country s largest doing up to 40 per cent of All corporate business. It would require those companies to include resident canadians As a majority of their directors. For foreign owned firms the requirement is even More strict employees of the firm could not be counted in the majority meaning More than half the directors must be out siders. Or. Gray said outside the House the provision would give a louder Canadian voice in foreign owned firms forming a useful adjunct to the foreign investment review Bill now before the commons finance committee. But he acknowledged it would be hard to predict How the new requirement would affect the performance of subsidiaries or their relations with Parent companies. The provision is similar to Laws recently enacted in on Tario and British Columbia re Quiring majority Canadian membership on boards. Officials said the Combina Tion of Federal Ontario and Laws would affect More than half of All Canadian corporations. Existing federally incorporated firms would have five years to meet provisions of the new Law or face dissolution. Or. Gray said he Hopes for its passage by parliament in time for january application. In what or. Gray called a codification of existing com Mon Law the Bill declares the duty of a director to act in the interests of the company not himself. The minister said the changes would bring the act in line with some provincial Laws and could constitute Model legislation for of her provinces to follow. He did not foresee wide spread evasion of the new pro visions by cancellations of fed eral Charters in favor of less stringent provincial Laws.
