There have been many comparisons made between the approach under the new Veterans Charter and what existed under the Pension Act. As you know, under the Pension Act there were additional amounts paid for dependants, spouses, and children.
When the new Veterans Charter was designed, the approach was to relate income replacement to the amount of income an individual was earning at the time of release from the forces. That's an amount with which they were supporting their families and an amount to which they had become accustomed.
It was based on 75% for all. It applies 75% for all. In that way, no matter what amount they had before, everyone has a similar percentage. If you think about it that way, you could argue that the benefits are built into that percentage, but you're quite right: there were no specific amounts, either in relation to EL or in relation to the disability award, that specifically recognized dependants in that.
