46. Regional student ombudsmen must, after receiving a report or on their own initiative and if they are of the opinion that the information in their possession could show that an act of sexual violence was committed against a student who attends an educational institution located in the region to which they are assigned, send the information to the principal of the institution concerned or to the person designated by the private educational institution unless they have reasonable grounds to believe that sending the information could impede an investigation.
Regional student ombudsmen assist any person who requires it in making a report or in taking any action relating to it.
Such information is processed by the principal of the institution or by the person designated by the private educational institution, as applicable, as a report received in accordance with section 96.12 of the Education Act (chapter I-13.3) or section 63.5 of the Act respecting private education (chapter E-9.1). In addition, regional student ombudsmen process such information as a complaint that they examine in accordance with the provisions of Divisions II and III of Chapter II, with the necessary modifications.
