We have significantly reduced the time it takes to let complainers know whether their complaints are admissible for investigation, and we are continuing to improve on these waiting times. You can find average timescales for each stage of the complaint handling process for all complaints on this page of our website.

Appendices to the Investigations Manual

| Complaint process policies | Complaints

For the first time in the history of the office the Commissioner has published their Investigations Manual for public reference in line with their commitment to accountability, honesty and transparency. The manual has been created to codify the investigations processes across all aspects of the office’s work and was finalised in consultation with our stakeholders. 

These are the appendices to that Manual.

The Investigations Manual can be found here.

The Manual and appendices were first published in March 2023, this is a revised version published in April 2024.
