We may have to disclose the complainant’s identity to whoever the complaint is about. This is inevitable where, for example, the accuracy of a person’s record is in dispute. If a complainant doesn’t want information identifying him or her to be disclosed, we will respect that. However, it may not be possible to handle a complaint on an anonymous basis and reach a satisfactory conclusion.

It will be retained in a secure environment and access to it will be restricted according to the ‘need to know’ principle.
