To say that the department has no program to address the situation is not true.
Before this government, my predecessors had taken action. In particular, Kristie Duncan worked with partners to develop a new code of conduct in 2018, and sport organizations can now rely on that code.
The newly created Office of the Sport Integrity Commissioner will also have the support of the code in conducting sport environment assessments and reviewing athletes' complaints regarding violence and abuse.
Those are measures our government has taken since 2018, but there is still work to do.
I have already announced that I will be conducting a full review of the funding regime in the next year. That will involve raising the threshold when it comes to funding criteria. Organizations will have to have better governance practices, show transparency and sign on to the program administered by the Office of the Sport Integrity Commissioner.
It's an ongoing process that we, as a government, undertook in 2018.
