Making a complaint

  • We are committed to acting fairly and professionally at all times.  If something has gone wrong, we want to hear about it.  Complaints help us understand what needs to improve.
  • You can make a complaint if you believe we have not carried out, or have failed to carry out, our statutory functions properly.
  • This may include a mistake or lack of care, unreasonable delay, unprofessional behaviour, bias, or a lack of integrity.

Investigation and Resolution


An initial review is carried out to determine whether the complaint falls within the scope of this policy and who is best placed to investigate your complaint.


  • The appointed investigator will be an appropriately senior and experienced colleague.

We may request additional information or a meeting to better understand your complaint.


The investigator will prepare a written response detailing the investigation carried out, the conclusions reached, and the rationale for those conclusions.


If upheld, remedies may include an apology and supporting explanation, or recommendations for any remedial action required, which may include amending our policies, procedures or working practices.
