The Australian government is taking steps in response to a recent Royal Commission study of sex offences and suicide in the Defence Force. Details here. Excerpt:
Personnel found to have engaged in sexual and related offences including harassment, unwanted touching and “prejudicial” or obscene conduct – whether through Defence’s disciplinary or administrative processes – will need to demonstrate why they too should not be discharged.
Those facing mandatory discharge would be able to challenge the ruling in a formal process triggered by the conviction.
