Press Complaints Commission
The Press Complaints Commission is an independent body which deals with complaints from members of the public about the editorial content of newspapers and magazines.
The service to the public is free and aims to be quick and easy. The PCC aims to deal with most complaints in just 35 working days and there is no cost to the people complaining.
All complaints are investigated under the editors' Code of Practice, which binds all national and regional newspapers and magazines. The Code - drawn up by editors themselves - covers the way in which news is gathered and reported. It also provides special protection to particularly vulnerable groups of people such as children, hospital patients and those at risk of discrimination.
The PCC's main aim with any complaint which raises a possible breach of the Code of Practice is always to resolve it as quickly as possible.
As well as dealing with complaints, the PCC deals with a substantial number of calls from members of the public about its service and about its Code. Last year it dealt with approximately 8,550 enquiries by telephone, fax and email.
