Response position and delivery status are recorded separately. Acceptance does not establish implementation.
Recommendation (the Committee's words)
Political parties should set clear expectations about the behaviour expected of their members, both offline and online through a code of conduct for members which specifically prohibits any intimidatory behaviour. Parties should ensure that members are familiar with the code. The consequences of any breach of the code should be clear and unambiguous.
