JUDICIAL OFFICERS ACT 1986 - SECT 21

21 Reference of complaint to Conduct Division or head of jurisdiction

(1) A complaint made to the Commission in accordance with this Act shall, if it is not summarily dismissed, be referred to the Conduct Division.

(2) The Commission may however refer a complaint to the relevant head of jurisdiction if the Commission thinks that, although the complaint appears to be wholly or partly substantiated, it does not justify the attention of the Conduct Division.

(3) A reference under subsection (2) may include recommendations as to what steps might be taken to deal with the complaint.
