Madam Chair, I don't know the information that was brought forward, because it would have been inappropriate for me to even accept it. It would have been interference in the actual process.
My goal at this time, in any allegation that comes forward, if a chief of defence staff is even mentioned, is to immediately take it extremely seriously, to make sure that it goes to the appropriate authorities for a proper investigation. That is exactly what we have done. I've said a number of times, even in previous years, that regardless of rank and regardless of position, we will take every allegation seriously.
