Question

To ask the right hon. Member for Carshalton and Wallington, representing the House of Commons Commission, pursuant to the oral contribution of 05 November 2018, Official Report column 1281, how many individuals with complaints prior to July 2017 have come forward.

The Independent Complaints and Grievance Scheme helplines provide the House of Commons with information about the volume of calls received and the Independent Investigation Service holds information about the number of formal complaints pursued. This information does not include whether the behaviours complained about pre- or post-date July 2017, although callers are advised that only complaints about incidents later than this date can currently be upheld under the Scheme.
