Extending scope of investigation
283 Extending scope of investigation
(1) The designated local regulatory authority may, if it considers it
appropriate to do so, extend the scope of an investigation of a complaint so
as to include conduct of the respondent revealed during the investigation.
(2) Conduct so revealed, or anything arising from that conduct, may be made
the subject of a new complaint.
(3) The new complaint need not be the subject
of a separate or further investigation if the designated local regulatory
authority is satisfied that the subject matter has already been sufficiently
investigated or considered.
