Suspended registration

6.

(1)

This paragraph applies if—

(a)

a transferred person’s registration in the CCW register was immediately before 3 April 2017 suspended by virtue of a suspension order imposed by the CCW’s Fitness to Practise Committee or an interim suspension order imposed by its Investigation Committee, and

(b)

the suspension would have continued on 3 April 2017.

(2)

On or after 3 April 2017, the person’s registration in the SCW register is to be treated as if it had been suspended on the same terms and for the same duration by order of an interim order panel or a fitness to practise panel of SCW (which is to be taken to have had the power to make such an order).

(3)

Accordingly, and for so long as the suspension is treated as continuing, section 163 of the Act will apply to the person’s registration in the SCW register13.
