Mr. Speaker, many things happened in the previous 10-year period, and I would concur that there is still more work to be done. Our government has accepted all of Justice Arbour's recommendations and intends to implement them.
In December 2022, the former minister of national defence presented a report to Parliament outlining the steps the government would take in response to each of the 48 recommendations, and we have been working on implementing them. Recommendation number five is the only recommendation that can exclusively be implemented through legislation, which is why it is the only Arbour recommendation addressed in this particular bill. The remaining 47 recommendations are being addressed through other means. We are taking steps to make the changes now, so we can improve the response for veterans.
