Okay. Thank you.
We will undertake a clause-by-clause review. From Mr. Leitão's remarks, I understand that there is perhaps agreement on all sides that retroactive application that will have the effect of suppressing benefits is not proper governance and is not the way that the government should approach this.
I believe you may have been in the gallery when the minister appeared. In response to my questions, she repeatedly refused to acknowledge the effect this would have on veterans. She insisted that these sections clarify benefits without affecting them. Can you comment on those responses that the minister had at this committee?
