HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION ACT 2005 (NO. 40 OF 2005) - SECT 49

Treatment of complaint if complaint dealt with as commission-initiated consideration

    (1)     This section applies if the commission decides to consider a complaint by commission-initiated consideration under section 48 (2).

    (2)     The person who made the complaint stops being the complainant and the commission becomes the complainant.

    (3)     However, the commission continues to have the same obligations under section 45 (2) (f) in relation to the person as the commission would have if the person were the complainant, but must not give the person information about the aggrieved person or the person complained about.

Note     Under s 80 (3) the commission need not give the person a final report in relation to the complaint.
