Mr. Chair, I'll say a few words and then ask Bernard to add.
We've got two acts and regulations that provide services.
Until March 31, 2006, if a veteran came forward with an injury or illness, they were covered under the Pension Act. For any injury the department became engaged with after April 1, 2006, the individual is covered by the new Veterans Charter. We have quite a lot of veterans who had coverage under the Pension Act and then with a new injury or illness that may have arisen since April 1, they're also covered under the new Veterans Charter.
It's quite complicated when you lay out all that, and some have called it a quilt or a patchwork, but we're dealing with two specific acts.
I'll turn it over to Bernard now.
