Can you undertake to this committee to provide us with the number of veterans who are employed at Agilec, and then perhaps the assessment criteria? MET, the military employment transition program run by Canada Company, had its challenges, as do all other programs, but certainly veterans were deeply embedded in it. It was non-profit and charity-based, so a number of people were surprised when they did not get the contract. If a comparison that Public Works used to assess and the criteria that were used could be released to the committee as well, I think that would be helpful.
My other question is about the JPSU, or the IPSC, or whatever we call it these days, General.
When I was minister and Minister Kenney was in place, we gave direct orders, if you can call them that, to our deputy ministers about not having anybody released until a case manager was in place and briefings had been given about their benefits. I remember a case of an Edmonton veteran who was being released into a home that was unfinished because of contractors. I remember committing in the House of Commons to not having him released.
Can we say with absolute certainty that this is happening now when veterans are released? I still anecdotally hear that people are released without full knowledge of Veterans Affairs programming.
