PROCEDURE FOR HANDLING DISPUTES/COMPLAINTS
If there are disputes/complaints regarding publications (e.g. the review process, copyrights, academic issues, etc) the process to resolve it will normally involve:
(1) Communication of the matter to the President.
(2) The President to set up a Committee that will look into the matter.
(3) The Committee to discuss the matter at a conference (or at a convenient time).
(4) The Committee to ask the person (s) involved plus other appropriate person(s) to address issues that may require clarification and lodge them in writing through email(s).
(5) The Committee to use the written submissions and any other relevant information for making its final decision.
(6) The decision is communicated to the person(s) and/or organization(s) concerned.
(7) The person(s) and/or organization(s) concerned may appeal the decision through a written submission to the President. If necessary the committee will re-visit the issue and make its final decision.
