When you are part of a Complaints Assessment Committee, you will have a hearing. This hearing is usually done by looking at the papers, unless the Committee decides otherwise. You will make a decision based on what is written down. You can look at the written material in any way you think is best. The Committee gets to decide how to consider the papers. You can find more information about this by looking at s 153(1). You will use the written material to make your decision, and you do not need to do anything else.
