Complaints may be made by any person including a competitor, visiting guests, staff, other associated golf members, and members of the public. 

Complaints must be made to the Committee.

Once received, the Committee will determine the offense, and grade it in accordance with Section Grading of complaints below.  The Committee will then take the following actions; 

1. If the matter is Grade 1, of a minor nature, the Committee will discuss the complaint with the person(s) involved and deal with the complaint by either dismissing the complaint or dealing with it by way of the first step in Appendix 2 whereupon the matter will be closed;

2. If the matter is Grade 1, but the person involved has already had step one of Appendix 2, then the Committee will discuss the complaint with the person(s) involved and either dismiss the complaint or deal with it by way of the second step in Appendix 2;

3. If the matter is Grade 2 or 3 offense, or involves a Grade 1 suspension or expulsion or expulsion, the Committee will carry out a preliminary investigation and gather all the facts of the complaint as is reasonably available within seven days from the receipt of the Complaint notice.  This may include speaking to the accused person and getting a written report from that person.

Grading of Complaints

All complaints and charges are to be graded 1 to 3 with 1 being the lightest grading and 3 being the most serious.  This is done by reference to Appendix 1 and the following notes. 

The Committee is required to determine the grain of the offense.  The grading allocated will determine the action to be taken and the potential penalty a player may receive.  Therefore, consistency of grain across offenses is important and it is a requirement that records are kept supporting the grading process.
