Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to direct this next question to Master Corporal Jacqueline.
We know it appears that sexual misconduct is on the rise in the Canadian Armed Forces. In the 2018 fiscal year, there were 256 cases reported. That number has risen every single year since then. In the last fiscal year, there were 444.
In DND's most recent departmental plan, there isn't even a determined goal to reduce cases of sexual misconduct. All it says in that column is, “Target to be determined”. This says to me that there isn't clarity on how they're going to deal with this issue.
We heard the numbers are larger because people are feeling far more comfortable and safe coming forward now. Would you say that is reflective of the circumstances now? You're still serving. What was the suggestion you had in regard to a means of dealing with that through a target team?
