You could go at it either way but the key thing here is it is in legislation and a legal requirement for confidentiality for the complainant. The reason is to give confidence to anybody making a complaint they will be legally protected and their identity legally protected. This is strong in that anybody who is making a complaint can ensure that is the case, simply request that, and they have the legal protection for that. I think it is appropriate but it is open for debate. I think this covers it well.
