The assessment sub-committee of our Standards Committee will initially consider complaints however it can only deal with complaints about the behaviour of a member. It will not deal with complaints about things that are not covered by the members' Code of Conduct. If you make a complaint it must be about why you think a member has not followed the Code of Conduct.
