Medical practitioner – Professional conduct committee. The appellant consultant cardiologist appealed against findings by the Fitness to Practise Panel (the Panel) of the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service that he had been guilty of misconduct, that his fitness to practise was impaired and against the sanction of six months' suspension. The Administrative Court, in dismissing the appeal, held that the Panel had not erred in having found the relevant allegations proved or in its findings of dishonesty. Accordingly, the finding of impairment and the sanction imposed could not be said to have been wrong.
