I propose to take Questions Nos. 201 to 203, inclusive, together.
There are designated guidelines and timescales for the investigation of allegations of bullying and harassment in the heath service agreed between the Health Service Employers Agency, health service employers and unions. The process includes an informal procedure, a formal procedure and finally an investigation process. The investigation is required to be completed as soon as possible, but not later than four weeks after the receipt of the written complaint, unless there are exceptional circumstances. The investigating team then submits its findings to senior management. If senior management decides, on the basis of the report, that the complaint is well-founded and the alleged bully has a case to answer, the matter may be further progressed through the disciplinary procedure or other appropriate action may be taken.
