What we knew first
- The CRA competitively awarded the protection-services contract to Universal Protection Service, and the parliamentary attempt to reverse it was defeated.
Still open then
- The original contract workforce, the number who lost work and the number who retained comparable pay and conditions have not been established.
We said we'd watch for
- Staffing and transition figures from the CRA and the contractors would show whether the change preserved livelihoods, not merely how many people changed employers.
