PERIOD OF TIME COVERED BY PROPOSED ACTION
23. The Home opened in 1921.
24 . From my review of the pleadings in the individual actions, it appears that the period of
time covered by the claims begins in 1937 and ends in 1987, a period of 50 years .
25. Hence, this proposed action would require an assessment of individual allegations and
incidents occurring over a 50 year period, going back as early as 75 years prior to today .

26. The individual actions make various allegations against various staff members of the
Home between the period 1937 and 1987. I am aware that the following staff members
