50: Determination of complaint by Tribunal

You could also call this:

“How the Tribunal decides on complaints about immigration advisers”

The Tribunal can make a decision about a complaint in three ways. First, they can decide to dismiss the complaint. This means they don’t think the complaint is valid. Second, they can agree with the complaint but choose not to do anything about it. Third, they can agree with the complaint and decide to punish the immigration adviser or former adviser. If they choose to punish the adviser, they can use one or more of the punishments listed in section 51.
