These changes focus on creating an independent Office of Supervisory Appeals to replace the existing Supervision Appeals Review Committee, aiming to enhance procedural fairness and speed in handling enforcement-related decisions.

Additionally, the guidelines outline who can appeal, what decisions can be appealed, and the role of the new Office in ensuring fair resolution.
