What I do not understand is, what happened in the past. Mr. Speaker, we do have a policy and under the guidelines it says that employees may not carry on any business or employment outside the public service in which they unduly or for personal gain exploit their acquaintance with other employees, or with people with whom they have become acquainted with in the course of their employment in the public service. I just do not understand why this policy was not applied previously and I guess my question is that. Why was that policy not applied previously?
