Thank you, Madam Chair.
I want to thank you, witnesses, as well, for making yourselves available so we could hear you today.
I like the plan you have outlined. You are to be congratulated for taking the initiative to do such a report.
When you look at the report, “Gender and Respect: The RCMP Action Plan”, it notes that this national picture of historical and ongoing complaints did not exist a year ago. It is a first from the RCMP. It stems directly from a December 2011 decision by the commissioner to centralize the oversight in administration of complaints in national headquarters.
I was wondering how this study has allowed you to better assess the impact of harassment on individual employees.
