The Professional Standards Authority (‘the PSA’) has referred to the High Court a decision of the Professional Conduct Committee (‘PCC’) of the General Chiropractic Council (‘GCC’), made on 5th November 2013 in respect of a registered chiropractor, Mr Briggs.
The PCC found that, in February 2012, Mr Briggs was guilty of unacceptable professional conduct by providing chiropractic treatment to patients when registered as ‘non-practising’ and without having indemnity insurance. The PCC imposed a six month suspension order, without provision for any review.
