94LVariation of prohibition or condition order

94L Variation of prohibition or condition order (1) A health care worker may, in writing, ask the commission to vary a prohibition or condition order made in relation to the health care worker if there has been a material change in a matter giving rise to the making of the order. (2) The commission must, on application or on its own initiative, vary an order if the commission is satisfied— (a) a prohibition or condition in the order is no longer required to protect the health or safety of the public; or (b) a prohibition or condition in the order is more restrictive than what is reasonably required to protect the health or safety of the public; or (c) the period of the order is longer than the period reasonably required to protect the health or safety of the public. (3) However, if the health care worker is a health practitioner, the commission must not vary an order without— (a) giving the relevant board for the health practitioner a reasonable opportunity to respond to the proposed order; and (b) considering the response (if any). (4) As soon as practicable after varying an order, the commission must give a copy of the varied order to the health care worker. (5) The commission may give a copy of a varied order to— (a) any relevant professional body for the health care worker; or (6) If an order is varied, the commission must include on the register the reason for the variation.
