Mr. Tony McCourt:

In circumstances where the decision is made by me, I do not think that there is any requirement for an additional right to appeal my decision to myself again. As I perhaps inadequately explained in my presentation to the committee, in any such case where the complainant was dissatisfied with my final decision and wished me to review it, provided there were just reasons for so doing and I considered that such a review was merited, I would feel that I have the discretionary power to do so. In exceptional circumstances, such as where new information became available which had not been available at the original time - as opposed to information that was available but had not been presented to me - equity would dictate that I should be prepared to review my original decision.
