And we also asked the Minister about a retired former deputy Commissioner of Police who has been retained on a 70,000 contract for $70,000 annually plus a vehicle to act as an advisor to the CEO.

And it's not just a one time thing, this is an annual contract that was renewed against this year.

Here's how Musa explained why his CEO needs a special advisor.

"Can you discuss the contract for Aaron Guzman, $70,000 a year plus vehicle, to be a special advisor to the CEO? Why does the CEO need a special advisor?"

Kareem Musa, Minister of Home Affairs & New Growth Industries
"It's not anything new. These government contracts exist in all ministries. Obviously, the CEO comes from an administrative background, not a policing background. And so having the type of advice and counsel from somebody like, a senior like Aaron Guzman, has been very valuable to the ministry and valuable to the CEO in the conduct of her duties."
