In reporting a grievance, the person making the report must have reasonable grounds to suspect an incident has occurred.

Making a false claim can damage the reputation, career and moral of people who are the subject of unfounded allegations of wrongdoing.

In submitting this report, I declare that I have reasonable grounds as to the truth and accuracy of this report and I am not knowingly making a false claim.
