This section applies if—

under section 28A (8) or 29 (8) the Secretary refers an approval or an authority to the Medical Committee for review, and

the review of the approval or authority is with respect to a possible contravention of this Act or the regulations, or a failure to comply with any conditions to which the approval or authority is subject.

For the purposes of conducting the review and preparing its report and the recommendation, the Medical Committee may require the Health Care Complaints Commission, the Medical Council of New South Wales, the Medical Board of Australia, the Nursing and Midwifery Council of New South Wales or the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia to provide the Medical Committee with any information in the Commission’s, Council’s or Board’s possession that is relevant to the Medical Committee’s review.

A requirement made by the Medical Committee under this section must be made in writing.

The Health Care Complaints Commission, the Medical Council of New South Wales, the Medical Board of Australia, the Nursing and Midwifery Council of New South Wales and the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia must comply with any reasonable requirement given to the Commission, Council or Board under this section.
