Committees
Seven Committees concluded their investigations and all made findings of inappropriate practice. The Committee findings related to five GPs and two medical practitioners, from Victoria (three), New South Wales (two) and Queensland (two).
The average time taken for Committees to report their findings in cases not delayed by court action was 594 days (549 days for cases finalised in 2006–07). Five cases were on hold due to court action in relation to a constitutional challenge (see page vii).
Six final Committee reports were sent to the Determining Authority.
The Director referred a further 15 new cases to Committees during the year.
