    The GDC's Interim Orders Committee decided at a review hearing on 30 April 2026 to continue the interim suspension on dental nurse John Howard Balane Perez's registration. The order was first imposed on 20 March 2023 for 18 months and has twice been extended by the High Court, most recently on 12 September 2025 for a further 12 months. The committee continued the suspension for the remainder of that extension, with another review due in six months. An interim order is not a finding about the allegations, which have not yet been decided.
