PRESIDENT OF TREASURY BOARD RESPONDS TO NETWORK

In June 2012, the National ME/FM Action Network wrote the President of the Treasury Board of Canada.  The Treasury Board is responsible for administering the disability insurance plan for federal government workers.  Based on a newspaper article, it appeared that the disability plan considered Chronic Fatigue Syndrome to be a mental illness.  Our correspondence was posted earlier.

 
Attached is the letter we received from the President of the Treasury Board in September.
