This is a very good point, Mr. Chair, because whether the disclosure, the allegation of wrongdoing, is founded or not, the individual should not be exposed to any form of reprisal. Of course, we rely on the individual coming to us because of the protection that is offered for reprisal, which is the core jurisdiction, and the exclusive jurisdiction, that our office has. I've explained as well the role of the tribunal. We will obviously monitor very clearly and very carefully that the legislation is applied, but we have to rely on the discloser to come to us.
