Katie Telford, the prime ministerâs chief of staff, appeared at the committee to give her account of who knew what and when, in the military sexual misconduct scandal.
She said the military ombudsman, Gary Walbourne, had pulled aside Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan in 2018 to make him aware of an allegation of personal misconduct against then chief of the defence staff Gen. Jonathan Vance.
Telford said she was not aware of the nature of the complaint until it was made public by the media in February of this year.
