Do you have the RESUPPLY minister activated? If you do he will send them home regularly.

That is totally the resupply minister, as Atrocities suggested.

1) Go to your empire status window (F11)
2) Click the "Ministers" Button
3) Click "Complete AI Off"

LOL I love it when people blame a great UI for something they have no idea about just yet

Seriously buddy the SEIV UI is one of the best I've ever encountered in any game so it's either the resupply minister or you have just forgotten to check the Intel ops properly.

Hello and welcome to the forums.

Please excuse the rabidness. Normally, we're friendly-er.

Welcome to the forums. As a welcoming present we will gladly space all of your ministers for you for free!!!

In reality though, in all of the single player games I;ve played, I've never found the ministers to be usefull.
