66Considerations before making occupational discipline

66 Considerations before making occupational discipline orders—suspension or cancellation of registration (1) This section applies if the ACAT is considering an application for occupational discipline to suspend or cancel a veterinary practitioner’s registration. (2) The ACAT must consider the following: (a) whether the veterinary practitioner has contravened this Act or the veterinary practitioners code of professional conduct;

(b) whether the veterinary practitioner has put, or is putting, public safety or the safety of animals at risk. Note The ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal Act 2008, s 65 sets out considerations for the ACAT when considering what other occupational discipline orders to make.
