Pursuant to
The
Medical Act, the Chair of the Investigation Committee may,
when there is a question of serious risk to the public, direct the
Registrar to suspend or to impose conditions of practice on the
licence of a physician pending the completion of an investigation
by the Investigation Committee or pending the completion of an
Inquiry before the Inquiry Committee.
An interim
suspension is based upon the Investigation Chair’s
assessment of the risk to the public. It is not a final
disciplinary action. An interim suspension is shown on
the profile only for the period of time that the suspension is
actually in effect.
