The Minister of National Defence report to Parliament by June
30, 1998 on all actions taken in response to the recommendations of
this Commission of Inquiry.
The transcripts of our proceedings, as amplified and illuminated
by the credibility findings in this report, be examined comprehensively
by appropriate authorities in the Department of National Defence
and the Canadian Forces, with a view to taking appropriate and
necessary action with regard to witnesses who by their actions
and attitude flouted or demeaned:
their oath or solemn affirmation;
their military duty to assist the Inquiry in its search for
the truth in the public interest;
the trust and confidence of Canadians in them; or
the officer's commission scroll, which expresses Her Majesty's
special trust and confidence in a Canadian officer's loyalty,
courage and integrity.
Save for those individuals who have been disciplined for actions
in relation to the deployment, all members of the Canadian Forces
who served in Somalia receive a special medal designed and designated
for that purpose.
