"The Disciplinary Committee is expected to investigate, make findings and recommend sanctions within the timelines set out in the party constitution."
"Those sanctions can range from a caution or reprimand to suspension, temporary removal from party office, fines, or expulsion, with the option for the affected member to appeal through the party’s internal appeals processes."
