The other sexual offences are the offences that are the subject of this bill and that are predominantly against children. In terms of the sexual assaults, as Mr. Grimes mentioned and as I mentioned in my comments, we cannot distinguish the age of the victim based on the court record. All we know is that based on police-reported information, about half of all sexual assaults in Canada in the last year were committed against children.
