NMC defence barrister and joint head of chambers, Catherine Stock, said: “This was a case relating to failing to renew registration in time and continuing to practise using a protected title.

What seems a small issues of failing to send your re-registration documents on time can have wide-ranging repercussions for the registrant and clients, who can be left with no avenue for recompense should things go wrong with their treatment.
“We would of course advise that you take active steps to ensure you are aware of your registration dates and requirements, but of course in life things can slip. If you find yourself in difficulty, contact us, and we can assist with next steps, how to communicate with your regulator and how to put things right.”
