I want to flag that the Minister may wish to make a further amendment on Report Stage. The Bill provides that the regulator shall advise its equivalent body in another jurisdiction where the regulator has reason to believe that the practitioner is registered as soon as practicable after it has applied a sanction. The Minister may put down an amendment to specifically provide that a regulator may similarly advise its equivalent body in another jurisdiction of the immediate suspension of a registrant prior to or during an inquiry where the regulator has reason to believe that the practitioner is registered. The Minister may put forward an amendment in this regard on Report Stage.
