What does “interim restrictions imposed” mean?
An interim order is a precautionary restriction imposed before the regulator's investigation is complete. It is not a finding of fault — the underlying allegations have not yet been adjudicated.

Charges

Findings
At an interim order review hearing, the panel decided to replace the current interim conditions of practice order with an interim suspension order. Miss Davies was not present and was unrepresented. Unless there has been a material change of circumstances, a reviewing panel will review the interim suspension order at an administrative hearing within the next six months. Miss Davies is entitled to have the order reviewed at a hearing instead, where she may attend, send a representative or submit written representations about whether the interim order continues to be necessary. The determination does not state a duration for the replacement order.
