Come on, guys. If the PDPC published names, that would be a major privacy breach! Definitely not the right answer.

D sounds like it would be a lot of work for the PDPC. I doubt they're obligated to get involved in civil actions.

I think B is the correct answer. Complainants should have the right to appeal decisions made by the PDPC.

But what about providing the complainant with a way to appeal a decision? Shouldn't that be a priority too?
