(2) In referring a complaint or matter, the Conduct Division may communicate to the person or body any information that the Division has obtained during the course of examining the complaint.
(3) The Conduct Division may refer a complaint or matter to a person or body even though a similar complaint or matter has already been referred.
(4) If the Conduct Division refers a complaint or matter, the Division does not thereby become a complainant for the purposes of any other Act.
