Mr. Speaker, our government is committed to making sure our men and women have all the right benefits. I have directed the chief of the defence staff to look into this matter.
I would also like to correct the member in terms of the previous government's actions on this. It actually sent troops into Kuwait without the tax-free allowance, something we had taken up. There were rules that were placed in 2014 that resulted in some of the inequities that we see right now.
That is the reason why we are looking into this matter, so we can solve this issue.
