### sec.11.49 Continuation of interrupted disciplinary proceedings
This section applies if, before the commencement, a disciplinary proceeding related to an affected referral was started, but not finally dealt with, under part 7.
The disciplinary proceeding may be continued by the prescribed officer repeating the last action taken by the officer under part 7, division 3 or 4.
If the last action taken by the prescribed officer was to give the subject officer a proposed sanction notice under section 7.28(2), the disciplinary proceeding may be continued by the prescribed officer giving the subject officer a new proposed sanction notice under section 7.28(2).
For subsection (2), a reference to the last action taken by the prescribed officer includes a reference to the last action taken by the officer who purported to be the prescribed officer for the disciplinary proceeding.
Before continuing the disciplinary proceeding, the commissioner may specify a new officer as the prescribed officer to whom the affected referral was made, regardless of whether a prescribed officer was properly specified for the referral when first made.
