33Disciplinary action

#### 33 Disciplinary action (1) If a person’s registration in an occupation in a State: (a) is cancelled or suspended; or (b) is subject to a condition; on disciplinary grounds, or as a result of or in anticipation of criminal, civil or disciplinary proceedings, then the person’s registration in the equivalent occupation in another State is affected in the same way. (2) However, the local registration authority of the other State may reinstate any cancelled or suspended registration or waive any such condition if it thinks it appropriate in the circumstances. (2A) If: (a) a person’s registration for an occupation in a State is cancelled, suspended or subject to a condition; and (b) the local registration authority for the occupation in the State knows that the person is registered for an equivalent occupation in another State; the local registration authority must, without delay, inform the local registration authority for the equivalent occupation of the cancellation, suspension or condition. (2B) Subsection (2A) applies despite any requirements relating to secrecy, privacy or confidentiality. (2C) Nothing in this section affects any obligation or power to provide information apart from this section. (3) This section extends to registration effected apart from this Act, but does not apply to any automatic deemed registration. > Note: For rules relating to cancellations etc. in relation to automatic deemed registrations, see sections 42G and 42M. (4) This section has effect despite any other provisions of this Part.
