Mr. Speaker, human resources bungling cost taxpayers $1 million and Newfoundlanders 124 jobs when the BPS call centre went belly up. Now we have learned that the $1 million earmarked for company salaries did not even get to the employees. The Newfoundland government is picking up the tab.
Since the minister is forcing taxpayers to pay twice for jobs that no longer exist, why will he not tell us where the money went?
