GMC Consults On Extending The Use Of Consensual Disposal In Fitness To Practise Cases

The GMC is proposing to extend the types of cases that can be concluded by "consensual disposal" instead of being referred to a full fitness to practise hearing. Consensual disposal is the conclusion of cases at the investigation stage by agreeing undertakings with a doctor, such as retraining or restricting a certain area of practice. This is as an alternative to referring the case forward for a fitness to practise panel hearing and ensures that doctors get the support they need to return to work safely. The consultation paper highlights clinical treatment cases as being particularly appropriate for Consensual Disposal. A consultation will review the proposal for the extension of the category of cases which can be concluded by consensual disposal, whilst ensuring patient safety. The consultation is part of the GMC"s regular review of policies and procedures. Paul Philip, Director of Standards and Fitness to Practise at the GMC, said, "The fitness to practise procedures are there to ensure that, where a doctor"s fitness to practise is in doubt, the case is investigated and dealt with quickly, firmly and fairly, without compromising patient safety. Exploring whether we can extend the use of consensual disposal will ensure that certain cases are dealt with in the most appropriate and proportionate way." The consultations run until 10 August.
