Five current and one former member of the legislature got PNP funds for their private businesses while in office and judith Haldemann says she can't release the company names or financial information that was filed in confidence and could hurt a company's competitive position. The program was suspended by the federal government in 2008 after P.E.I. violated some of the program rules, and there has been much speculation since about who benefited from the program. As
