Could I make a comment too?
In 2000, the act was adopted and the board was created. In looking at the current act, we just realized that although it's never occurred, it is possible for current members of the CF to be appointed to the Canadian Forces Grievance Board. The Governor in Council can appoint and second these members to the board as members, but they would remain active members of the chain of command.
That's something we will bring up in the next review of the act. We don't think that having board members who are current members of the Canadian Forces would be an appropriate way of using the appointment system, but retired members seem to be an asset that the Governor in Council has taken for the current board we have.
