Bill 77 - On May 18, 2008, the Ontario government introduced legislation that, if passed, would lay the groundwork for the province to modernize and improve service delivery for adults with a developmental disability. This was a commitment made by the Minister of Community and Social Services at the Community Living Ontario 2007 Annual Conference.

"The current Developmental Services Act is out of date . . . this legislation will help us to build the foundation for the next generation of people who have a developmental disability," said Minister of Community and Social Services Madeleine Meilleur.
