The statistics below provide an overview of the Committee’s Findings and Recommendations (F&R) as well as the Final Authority (FA) responses to those F&Rs over the last five years.
Committee's Findings and Recommendations
Between 2019 and 2023, the Committee issued F&Rs on 1,135 grievances of which 47.6% (540 cases) found that the grievor had been aggrieved by a decision, act or omission in the administration of the affairs of the CAF. In the remaining 52.4% (595 cases), the Committee recommended that the grievance be denied.
In the 47.6% (540 cases) where the grievor had been aggrieved, the Committee recommended to grant full or partial remedy in 94.5% (512 cases); in 0.2% (1 case) , the Committee recommended that a remedy be obtained outside of the grievance process, rather than be granted by the FA; in 4.8% (26 cases) a remedy could no longer be recommended (i.e., the grievor was no longer a CAF member or the issue of the grievance was moot).
The following graphic sets out the distribution in percentage of the Committee's Findings by year.
| Committee's F&R | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aggrieved | 57% (99) | 39% (102) | 44% (150) | 41% (58) | 61% (131) |
| Not aggrieved | 43% (75) | 61% (161) | 56% (191) | 59% (84) | 39% (84) |
Note: Totals may not add to 100% due to rounding.
Final Authority decisions
Of the 1,135 F&R issued by the Committee, the FA rendered 716 decisions. Of these, 313 decisions addressed cases where the Committee found that the grievor had been aggrieved by a decision, act or omission in the administration of the affairs of the CAF. The remaining 403 decisions addressed cases where the Committee had found that the grievor had not been aggrieved and recommended that redress be denied.
The following illustrates the distribution of the FA decisions in percentage on each of these two categories.
| Committee F&Rs | Cases where the Committee found that the grievor had been aggrieved | Cases where the Committee found that the grievor had not been aggrieved |
|---|---|---|
| FA agrees and partially agrees with Committee’s F&R | 91% (285) | 88% (353) |
| FA does not agree with the Committee’s F&R | 6% (20) | 4% (13) |
| Cases withdrawn at FA Level | 3% (8) | 9% (37) |
Note: Totals may not add to 100% due to rounding.
