Suspension(suspended from practice)· 1 year
The MPTS tribunal found that Dr Sarah Benn's fitness to practise remains impaired by reason of misconduct and a conviction arising from her climate-change and animal-rights protests, which included breaching a High Court injunction three times and a conviction for criminal damage. At this review hearing the tribunal found she had shown no further insight or remediation and maintained that her position would not change. Concluding that compliance with the law is a fundamental professional requirement, it suspended her registration for 12 months.
