I call this meeting back to order.
The committee is continuing its study of addressing sexual misconduct in the Canadian Armed Forces, including the allegations against former chief of the defence staff, Jonathan Vance.
With us today by video conference for the second hour are the following witnesses from the Privy Council Office: Christyne Tremblay, deputy clerk; and Janine Sherman, deputy secretary to the cabinet, senior personnel and public service renewal.
I extend a heartfelt welcome to the two of you.
I would now like to invite Madam Tremblay to make her opening statement. Then it will be followed by questions from the floor.
