It handles appeals against decisions made by the Investigating and Disciplinary Committee regarding actions short of dismissal. It also reviews appeals from complainants whose grievances have been dismissed by the Receiving Officer or the Personnel Board Grievance Sub-Committee. These functions are carried out in accordance with the council's disciplinary, capability, and grievance policies. Meetings are held in private.
