Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I would like to thank Ms. O'Sullivan and Ms. Peterson for joining us today.

This is really interesting, and we are fortunate to have you with us. I want to thank you for sharing your story with us.

I have some more technical questions about the National DNA Data Bank. I don't know whether Ms. O'Sullivan will be able to answer them, but I will still put my questions to her.

I saw that the National DNA Data Bank contained a voluntary donors index. I am not necessarily familiar with all the details, but I know that, according to the RCMP, this would mainly be used to clear certain individuals during an investigation.

What do you think about the voluntary donors index? What does that tool mean for victims?
