Mr. Niall Cody:
There are not many examples of it. What we call egregious abuse of the wage subsidy schemes was very low.
While I would not be shocked by any case, if some of them were seen people would say they were absolutely outrageous. In a way, it goes beyond tax evasion because it is abusing a support system that was put in place when public health restrictions applied. We take it very seriously.
