Share your views on our draft Restoration Guidance
We are proposing the introduction of guidance for the Professional Conduct Committee (PCC) on the arrangements for, and procedure at, a hearing where an osteopath applies to be restored to the Register after they have been removed from the Register following a fitness to practise hearing.
In our consultation on the proposed guidance we welcome any comments that you would like to provide. All feedback will be taken into consideration. There are two areas in particular where we would like to invite feedback:
- Whether or not a complainant’s views be sought and placed before the Committee as part of its decision-making process.
- Should the PCC look for exceptional circumstances before a former registrant is allowed to return to the Register where their application has been made before five years has elapsed since they were removed following a fitness to practise hearing.
The deadline for responses to this consultation is 20 June 2019, and responses can be completed online, by email, or by post.
