'The rules' aside, it seems to me fairly obvious that publishing the outcome of complaints and the process that lead to this outcome is clearly preferable to the alternative.

Regulation 5 Paragraph 3.5:
The outcome of the complaint will be published on the ECF website
Personally, I read the report with a certain weariness but at least thinking that the ECF were on the right track with regard to engagement with members and the public for once.
On the other hand, this from page 4 of the report:-
"The Board agreed with one vote against (not RW) that the content of RW’s dissatisfaction should be recorded but not published and therefore that the minute of the discussion would be redacted."

Strikes me as potentially problematic. At the very least it's clear that it became a problem.
