Finding
Preliminary and Procedural Matters
Hearing in private
1. On behalf of the HCPC, Mr Ive made an application for the entire hearing to be heard in private to protect the private life of the Registrant. He submitted that the case involves a health allegation and that the matters in the case are inextricably linked to the Registrant’s health.
2. The Registrant confirmed that she supported this application.
3. The Panel accepted the advice of the Legal Assessor and it had regard to the guidance in the HCPTS Practice Note ‘Conducting Hearings in Private’. Having reviewed the material in the bundle the Panel considered that all the matters were linked to the Registrant’s health. In these circumstances, the Panel considered that the protection of the Registrant’s private life outweighed the public interest in open justice. It therefore agreed to the application that the entire hearing should be heard in private.
Decision
4. The Panel therefore decided to impose a Conditions of Practice Order for a period of 18 months as the most appropriate and proportionate Order.

Notes
Interim Order
1. The Panel makes an Interim Conditions of Practice Order under Article 31(2) of the Health Professions Order 2001, the same being necessary to protect members of the public and being otherwise in the public interest.
