The Committee on Discipline

The Professional Code requires a committee on discipline to be constituted within each professional order.

The Committee on Discipline is seized of every complaint made against a member by the syndic or any other person acting as plaintiff for an offence against the Professional Code, the Code of Ethics of Chartered Accountants or the regulations thereunder.

The Committee on Discipline differs from other Ordre committees in three respects:

Sovereignty: the Committee's decisions are executory and need not be approved by the Bureau;
Composition: the Committee chair is a lawyer appointed by the government;
Procedure: the Committee follows the rules of administrative tribunals.

The expenses incurred by this Committee are paid by the Ordre, except for the chair's fees which are paid by the Office des professions du Québec.

The Committee on Discipline submits an activity report each year.

The Review Committee

Under section 123.3 of the Professional Code, a review committee shall be established within each professional order. Committee members, including at least one person chosen from among the directors appointed by the Office des professions to represent the public, are appointed by the Bureau.

There are three persons at each sitting of the Review Committee, including at least one representative of the public.

The Review Committee submits an activity report each year.
