The Auditor General's 2018 fall report showed that there was a spike in third party reporting of inappropriate sexual behaviour leading to investigations, which the victim did not want done or was not yet ready to pursue.
Justice Deschamps told this committee that this is the opposite of her recommendation, which was supposed to support the anonymous victims until they were ready to file a complaint, and only then begin investigations outside the chain of command.
Why was her advice not taken? I recognize that you're building. Why was her advice not taken to place the responsibility for investigations completely outside the chain of command? The military police are part of the investigation, and from there on up the commanders are aware of exactly what is going on.
