Mr. Harris moved,

M. Harris propose,

Private Members’ Notice of Motion No. 63:-

Avis de motion émanant des députés no 63 :-

That, in the opinion of this House, a Select Committee on diagnosis and treatment funding for patients with rare diseases, should be appointed to consider and report to the House its observations and recommendations with respect to the urgent need for a comprehensive strategy to address the issues patients of all rare diseases are facing in the Province of Ontario when accessing necessary care and treatment.

The Committee should review the Report of the Ontario Citizens' Council regarding funding for drugs for rare diseases that was presented to the Ontario Drug Program in 2010 and review the effectiveness of the draft framework from when it was first introduced in 2011. The Committee should also review the coordination of delivery of funding for diagnosis and treatment for rare diseases (DRDs) across provincial ministries and agencies; and that in developing its strategy and recommendations, the Committee should focus on the following issues:

  • the current definition that is used for rare diseases in Ontario;
  • training of medical professionals to both effectively diagnose and provide appropriate referrals and treatment options for rare diseases;
  • the need for a provincial research and drug development strategy for rare diseases;
  • the alignment of available clinical data, best-practice guidelines, and funding criteria;
  • the Transparent Drug System for Patients Act and any changes that are necessary to better support Ontarians with rare diseases;
  • the implementation of the Compassionate Review Policy for DRDs;
  • the need for a committed funding envelope specific for DRDs;
  • the Health Insurance Act regulations and Out of Country Services Program for possible improvements to allow more timely access to necessary treatment whether in or out of province;
  • the Assistive Devices Program and related funding to ensure urgent needs for equipment required by those with rare disease are met;
  • Ontario Respite Care programs and suitability to meet the needs of those impacted by rare disease; and
  • any further government funded supports for families and caregivers struggling to meet the care needs of those suffering with rare disease.

That the Committee shall meet on Wednesdays following Routine Proceedings until 6:00 p.m.; and

That the Committee is authorized to meet at the call of the Chair but must recess during the Oral Question period when meeting at Queen's Park; and

That the Committee shall have the authority to travel within Ontario; and

That the Committee should present an interim report to the House no later than September 30, 2016 and a final report no later than December 31, 2016; and

That in the event of, and notwithstanding, any prorogation of the House before the presentation of the Committee's final report, the Committee should be deemed to be continued to the subsequent session or sessions and may continue to meet during any such prorogation; and

That, notwithstanding Standing Order 113(a), the Committee shall be composed of six members from the government, one of whom shall be the Chair, two members from the official opposition, one of whom shall be the Vice-Chair, and one member from the third party;

That the chief whip of each of the recognized parties should indicate in writing to the Clerk of the House, their party's membership on the Committee by March 10, 2016.
