Streamline Benefits for amputees: End frequent reassessments for long-term support.
Streamline processes and give longer deadlines
We think the Government should act to ensure veterans have adequate support due to the significant, lifelong consequences of their service. We think streamlining claims procedures and extending time frames for filing would ensure veterans aren't unfairly penalized by strict deadlines. We think publicizing these rights would educate veterans on their entitlements, fostering trust and fairness in the system. We believe this respect for their sacrifices is crucial for their well-being and dignity.
