We'll go back to Mr. Ruff.
Thank you, Chair. Therefore, my question is, if the deputy minister in the department provided him with an appropriate plan or a written plan, why is he questioning how appropriate that plan is? I have complete confidence in the deputy minister's ability to produce a written plan.
The honourable minister may give a brief answer, please.
I can assure my honourable colleague that with the appropriate funding, we will address the backlog in Veterans Affairs.
