(b)         Adjudicate minor complaints and issue formal letters of disapproval (Disapproval Letters) which shall include, where appropriate, directions for required corrective actions;
 
(c)         Direct any other course of action in relation to dismissed or minor complaints as the Committee may think fit; and
 
(d)        Refer more serious complaints to the Registrar for consideration by the Council with a recommendation to refer the matter to either the Disciplinary Panels or the Investigation Panels and, if appropriate, to conclude the matter by an alternative resolution which shall include sanctions and other actions, as deemed necessary.
 
The Committee may request information and explanations relating to any complaint from any party, where necessary.
 
3.        To inform all parties to a complaint as to the dismissal or adjudication of the complaint by the Committee and as to the avenue and time allowed for lodging an appeal on the Committee’s decision.
