Your Contact Details

The RA’s practice is not to share details of the identity of complainants (or information that could reasonably be expected to reveal the identity of a complainant) with the subject of the complaint, without the prior consent of the complainant.

Confidentiality

The RA does receive and assess complaints received on an anonymous basis. However, we note that complaints made on an anonymous basis may limit the RA’s ability to assess and where appropriate take action in relation any concerns raised in a complaint.

In assessing your complaint it may be necessary to contact the entity or person you have complained about. Do you consent to the RA disclosing your name to the person you have complained about?
