Investigatory Powers Tribunal does not collate the information about the average length
of time from a complaint or claim being submitted to the announcement of a ruling.
The cases received by the Investigatory Powers Tribunal vary in scope and complexity.
Each case is considered on its own merits and receives appropriate legal scrutiny.</p>
