Thank you, Mr. Chairman and Mr. Stoffer.
You referenced the VIP. Yes, I have briefed Commissioner Paulson on the VIP file and what's happened to it. At this point, as you realize, we have no authority to authorize the payment of VIP, and so we can't proceed with that.
We have provided advice. However, what we're doing now is looking at our health services program as a whole for serving members and veterans, and looking at what we provide to our members and our retired members to see how we can ensure they have the proper services. We have policies and practices in place, but we're doing a full review of the whole health benefits program in the RCMP currently. We started reviewing that.
We will be engaging, as I mentioned to Abe earlier on, our SRR colleagues on how we can possibly improve and how we can maximize what we're doing with the resources we have. That is proceeding accordingly.
