Mr. Speaker, the solicitor general stated on more than one occasion that incentive payments, some as high as $700 a week, made by CORCAN to federal inmates was a one shot deal and that Correctional Service Canada said it would never happen again.
We have now learned that in the last fiscal year close to $2 million, $1.79 million, was paid for incentive allowances. It does not sound like a one shot deal from here.
We have asked the solicitor general time and time again and we ask him this again today. How many federal inmates have received incentive payments?
