Hearing findings, decision and sanction notices

These provide details of the complaint, the panel’s findings and decision, and any sanctions imposed upon the member. These notices will remain on the website for a minimum of two months, unless replaced by a withdrawal of membership or registration notice.

We may have more than one member with the same name, so it's important to check the membership number. We’ll also include a geographical location to help identify them.
