What it set out to do
On 7 November 2013, the Minister of Veteran Affairs introduced Bill C-11, An Act to amend the Public Service Employment Act (priority hiring for injured veterans) (Priority Hiring for Injured Veterans Act) in the House of Commons and it was given first reading. Every year, many military members transition out of the Canadian Armed Forces. For those Canadian Armed Forces members who cannot deploy and meet the demands of operations, finding meaningful employment is a key factor in making a successful transition to civilian life. Bill C-11 amends the Public Service Employment Act to establish a right of appointment, in priority to all other persons, for certain members of the Canadian Forces who are released for medical reasons that are attributable to service.
