With regard to moving money out of the operations, Veterans Affairs Canada has a 6% operation budget. The 6% budget is less than what most charitable organizations have for an operational budget. When we look at the veterans' aspect, we're a department that's supposed to provide services and benefits, but the operation is so low.
We have a concern—I have a concern—with the minister's announcement of moving the $4 million over to a veterans emergency fund. In our opinion, we don't think the veterans would need as much emergency fund assistance if we could just get their claims processed and paid.
