(1)  dismiss it if the person in charge of processing complaints judges it to be frivolous, vexatious, unfounded or made in bad faith;

(2)  submit it to the member’s immediate supervisor or line supervisor so that the supervisor can decide whether a written notice pursuant to section 20 should be issued to the member or, if the complaint concerns a member whose services are on secondment, submit it to the Commissioner so that he or she can decide, in accordance with that section, whether to recommend to the competent disciplinary authorities of the police force that seconded the member’s services that a written warning be issued to the member;
