HOW WE HANDLE COMPLAINTS
All complaints are managed through a consistent and structured process to ensure they are handled fairly, thoroughly and professionally:
1. Receipt and logging: When a complaint is received, it is recorded and logged in our internal systems.
2. Acknowledgement: We aim to acknowledge complaints within five (5) working days of receipt.
3. Assessment and referral: The complaint is reviewed and categorised, then referred to the most appropriate department to investigate. Where a complaint raises issues that require a response, a response will be prepared in accordance with the steps set out below.
4. Response preparation: A response is prepared. Where appropriate, this may be reviewed in consultation with relevant departments and the Chief Executive’s Office to ensure accuracy, clarity and consistency.
5. Response issued: Once finalised, the response is issued to you. We aim to provide our response within twenty (20) working days, where possible. If we are unable to respond within the original time estimate, we will let you know and provide an indication of when the response can be expected.
REQUESTING A REVIEW
If you are dissatisfied with the outcome of your complaint, you may contact us within ten (10) working days to request a review. Please include the reasons for your request. We will ensure that your review is conducted by a member of staff who was not involved in the original response.
If the complaint is upheld following the review, we will notify you and take the appropriate steps to address the matter. If the complaint is not upheld, we will inform you and explain the reasons why. This will conclude our complaints procedure.
YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
If you use our complaints procedure, we will use the personal information you provide to investigate and respond to your complaint. We will only share your personal information where necessary to investigate and respond to your complaint, and in accordance with applicable data protection laws and our Privacy Policy.
