Agreement Five Clause Samples

Agreement Five. Some Member States’ competent authorities have the power to impose urgent and effective interim restrictions on, or removal from, practice pending full and final determination of a case. In these pending cases where the balance is that patients or healthcare systems are at risk, and especially where a temporary or interim sanction has been imposed pending an appeal or final decision, competent authorities should reactively, or proactively, exchange information with other competent authorities on a case-by-case basis.
