What must be done with complaints not handled by your department?

Complaints not handled by your department should be forwarded to the appropriate agency. This action ensures that issues outside the jurisdiction or expertise of your department are addressed by the correct authority that has the capability, resources, or mandate to resolve them. Each agency or department typically has specific responsibilities, and forwarding complaints helps maintain effective communication and collaborative efforts among different entities, ultimately leading to better outcomes for the community. By routing these complaints correctly, you contribute to the efficiency and integrity of the regulatory process.
