Chairman, I think there should be. It is important, particularly if we want a responsive situation in terms of the questions raised by the complainant. In the event that the complaint is not valid, that needs to be dealt with at an early stage in order to protect the complainant and the person against whom the complaint is made. Do we have procedures in place in that regard at present? If not, why not?
