Our complaint and feedback policy

Our complaint and feedback policy is modelled on the NSW Ombudsman’s guidelines for complaint handling.

You will receive acknowledgement of your written feedback within 2 business days.

  • the outcome of the issue raised and any action we took
  • the reason/s for our decision
