Very good.
I want to thank our witnesses and to say again how proud and thankful we are for your service. I apologize as well for the delays from the voting that we had.
Committee members, are you all okay to stay until about 1:30 p.m. so that we can have a fulsome panel for the second one?
I'm seeing some nodding. Okay.
We'll go right to our second panel. I want to welcome our witnesses from the Department of National Defence. Brigadier-General Atherton is the director general of professional military conduct. Dr. Denise Preston is the executive director of the sexual misconduct response centre.
You will each have five minutes for your remarks.
