There is one Independent Case Examiner (ICE), appointed under contract to adjudicate on the merits of complaints where the complainant remains dissatisfied, having exhausted the Department’s complaints process and those of its provider partners.

The ICE is supported by the ICE Office, an independent unit which is recruiting up to its headcount of 112 FTE.
