One of the key pillars of the Code is that of the principle of Fair and Ethical dealing.   In the spirit and intent of that principle, no parties to the Code shall undertake any punitive or retaliatory acts as a result of any party exercising their rights provided for under the Code.  In areas where systemic issues have been identified by the GCAO, remedial steps can be taken to provide anonymity.  But in situations that may be unique to a particular company, anonymity cannot be guaranteed.  However, with the emphasis on clear written agreements, it is expected that any issues that arise can and will be settled within the spirit and intent of the Code.  It is also worth noting that in other jurisdictions where grocery Codes have been implemented, almost all disputes are resolved within the resolution framework of their Code without intervention by the Code Adjudicator.
