“Military personnel are well qualified for security jobs, and that work will continue. But our main focus is helping veterans find good careers that use their technical skills and experience after they leave the military.”
Official Hansard

Madam Speaker, security service are an important part of employment, and they will continue because our military personnel are good at them. They have the training, the experience, the knowledge and the security clearance to carry on in this job. My point, and the focus of this government, is the much broader challenge that faces our veteran community. It is to find a rewarding career that really reflects the wealth of their experience and contributions and the fact that they are really technically savvy. They work with amazing dual-use technology. We need to have as a priority the recognition of their skills so they can have a rewarding career. They have many years to fulfill that.
