Summary

During the 2020/21 fiscal year, one citation for discipline hearing was issued. The majority of complaints that prompted the issuing of a citation were ultimately resolved through consent orders; therefore, six outstanding citations issued from the previous year were cancelled. The registrants and the Inquiry Committee agreed to resolve all matters by way of a Consent Order under section 37.1 of the HPA or Consent Agreement under section 36(1) of the HPA.

No discipline and penalty decisions were issued by the Discipline Committee in 2020/21.

Discipline Committee findings are posted on CPBC’s website.
