Regulation 16
Separate inquiry where registered allied health professional is prejudiced
Despite any other provision in these Regulations, a Disciplinary Tribunal may order, before or at any stage of an inquiry in relation to a registered allied health professional, that a separate inquiry be held into one or more disciplinary offences alleged to have been committed by the registered allied health professional, if the Disciplinary Tribunal is of the view that the registered allied health professional may be prejudiced or embarrassed in his or her defence because —
a single inquiry is being held into more than one disciplinary offence under regulation 13 or 15(1)(a); or
a joint inquiry is being held under regulation 14 or 15(1)(b) against the registered allied health professional together with one or more other registered allied health professionals.
