Clause 41

Subject to subsection (2) and sections 42(1) and 43, the Council must, after receiving any disciplinary case under section 40(1), refer the disciplinary case to the Registrar for review.

The Council need not refer the disciplinary case to the Registrar for review if the disciplinary case relates to any matter set out in section 26(1)(a) to (g) or (2) and, in such a case, the Council or Registrar (as the case may be) may take any action authorised under that section.

Subject to sections 42(2) and 43, the Council may also, on its own motion, bring a disciplinary case against a registered veterinarian by making a complaint against, or providing any information about, the registered veterinarian on any matter mentioned in section 40(3) or (4) to the Registrar for review.
