Madam Chair, it's very important to point out to the honourable member that while we are housed in Veterans Affairs, we're actually not Veterans Affairs. We are a partnership of seven departments, so we don't actually deliver direct services. What we do is provide the means to work collaboratively. Through the establishment of the Office of Health Human Resources, the issues that all of our partners are experiencing in dealing with the challenges they have of finding physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, and so on are brought to the table, so that a good practice that has been adopted and has worked for one partner can work for another. But our raison d'être is economies of scale, so we don't actually deliver the services for the RCMP, we don't actually deliver the services for Veterans Affairs.
I think, Madam Chair, it's important that the honourable members understand the nature of the work of the partnership. So the study that was done in 2007, the work that we continue to do, is aimed at helping departments deal with their challenges.
