Reinstatement of D/Commr. Barbara George

News Release

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (“the RCMP”) hereby announces the reinstatement of D/Commr. Barbara George who will be returning to active duty on November 28, 2007. D/Commr. George will undertake a number of assignments until the commencement of a period of education leave as had been previously agreed.
The RCMP wishes to clarify that D/Commr. George was suspended from her duties with pay in March, 2007, pending an internal investigation. The suspension was neither disciplinary nor punitive in nature, but rather was a purely administrative measure.
Furthermore, the RCMP wishes to clarify that the internal investigation into D/Commr. George’s conduct did not involve any allegation that she had misappropriated public funds for personal gain, nor that she was personally involved in the mismanagement of the RCMP pension or insurance plans. The internal investigation concerned questions with respect to communication between D/Commr. George and other members of the Force. These questions have now been resolved to the satisfaction of the RCMP.
Although we are pleased that these matters have now been resolved, the RCMP regrets the amount of time it has taken to do so, and the impact the suspension and related events have had on D/Commr. George and her family and on other members of the Force.
The RCMP welcomes D/Commr. George’s return to active duty, and looks forward to her ongoing contribution to the organization.
