That would be fabulous.
Shared Services Canada is asking for another $34 million to fund the next generation human resources and pay initiative, but there's no funding here for the Phoenix pay system.
In June, you shared that the Department of Finance told your office that hundreds of millions were allotted to fixing Phoenix, and that would fix it once and for all. Now I want to ask you if service delivery has improved. Clearly, it didn't. They're focusing on going after people for overpayments instead of paying the people who did work and did not get paid.
Almost a million transactions with financial implications are currently waiting in the pay centre's queue. What do you see is needed to fix this? What resources are needed to make sure everybody who's owed money gets paid?
