I move amendment No. 36:

In page 38, to delete lines 5 and 6 and substitute the following:“(10) The Commission shall publish on the internet in such form and in such manner as it considers appropriate every decision (other than information that would identify the parties in relation to whom the decision was made) of an adjudication officer under this section.”.

At first instance, adjudication proceedings before an adjudication officer will be conducted otherwise than in public. It was always intended that the consequent decisions would be published in an anonymised format. The amendment provides a statutory basis for such anonymised publication to ensure the identity of neither the complainant nor the respondent can be known from the decision as published.
