This is comprehensive database housing information on complaints investigated by the Press Complaints Commission from 1996 to 2014.

The complaints that appear on this website are here only as an archive of the decisions made:

Adjudicated
The Commission can elect formally to adjudicate on any unresolved complaint. This means that the Commission issues a ruling on the substance of the complaint, which is published on this website. If the Commission finds an outstanding breach of the Code, it will uphold the complaint against the publication. The publication will then have to publish the Commission's ruling in full on its pages, with a headline reference to the PCC and with due prominence. If the Commission finds no outstanding breach of the Code, the complaint will be recorded as not upheld.
