Veterans Affairs committee   to complete. It's not clear to them why it's required. In fact, some of these forms are not mandatory for the veteran to complete either. So we're really looking at the different forms that are used in the pension process, the medical information that we collect, the forms we give

Information & Ethics committee  Mr. Chairman, I think I have to correct something. Perhaps I wasn't clear. There are four out of 250 that I know of that are disclosing their completed information requests. In terms of the other data sets that are available, NRCan is producing quite a lot of very valuable data

Veterans Affairs committee  , for which we may have asked for more information than was even required to make a decision. We're delegating more decision-making down to front-line staff. So I think from that perspective, work is under way. We've certainly heard loud and clear what veterans want, and certainly, from

Foreign Affairs committee  I just want to be clear that I understand you. Let's say that a person went to Paraguay to work on a computer project and they're down there for three weeks. There would be an agency or an individual in Paraguay who would be looking after their accommodation and local

Veterans Affairs committee  Just so I'm clear, this is the work, you're saying, in Canada.

Justice committee  Thank you to all three of you. I would appreciate your cooperation in clearing out and allowing the next three witnesses to take their places at the table. We'll suspend for two minutes.

Foreign Affairs committee  Thank you. Just so we're all clear, we've had some excellent testimony by the ambassador and from the video with respect specifically to Mongolia. Ms. Lee and Mr. Rourke represent organizations from which we may learn something, some parts of which we can perhaps use

Canadian Heritage committee  I don't know whether you have looked at the Marquee Tourism Events Program, but when you see the results province by province, it is clear that all the provinces lost money except British Columbia, or Vancouver, really, since you were given $8 million. Furthermore, the CTC moved

Justice committee  I'm not clear from both the briefing and the answer you gave Ms. Jennings: if a person says to you prior to one-year release eligibility that they're not going to apply, do you begin preparing that documentation anyway?

National Defence committee  One of the other things I wasn't quite clear on...and the question was asked, but I wasn't sure whether you answered it. You talked about the opportunities that exist within the F-35 process. I think the question had to do with guarantees as opposed to, or in addition

National Defence committee  Well, my understanding is that the ability of Canada to participate is tied to our support of the program. Now there may be opportunities, but they would certainly not be first-tier, second-tier, or third-tier ones. I think the clear advantage for Canada, as a member

Canadian Heritage committee   their grant under the Marquee Tourism Events Program. So, you did know. You said earlier that you made your submission to Treasury Board in June. So, looking at the sequence of events, it is clear that you knew, when you accepted or requested the $8 million, that you would be taking money

National Defence committee  , there are clear opportunities for Canadian industry. What we've been trying to say is that the earlier that Canadian industry is part of the planning and then execution of procurement, the greater the opportunities there will be for industry to participate, both at the production

National Defence committee  Now with respect to sustainment, because that is obviously an important issue, I'm sure you're aware, but I just want to make it clear, that we didn't have a sustainment contract for CF-18s until four years after we actually started flying the airplanes.
