This proposed by-law amendment would help facilitate the appointment of properly constituted panels for Discipline hearings.
Under the current College by-laws, all members of Council are appointed to the Discipline Committee, except for those who have been appointed to Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee (ICRC). This was done to reassure both the public and disciplined members that anyone who sits on a Discipline panel has not previously dealt with the member at the ICRC level. This worked well at a time when the Discipline Committee was relatively inactive.
