What the results tell us
Complainant feedback and casework process assurance scores improved overall this quarter. There was a notable increase in complainants’ satisfaction with how we gather information before making decisions. However, this score remains relatively low for what we expect to see, so we will continue to focus on this as an area for improvement.
