Selvarajan v GMC

Comment

This case provides welcome clarity for disciplinary bodies (and their advisers) considering whether delay which is not such as to have caused sufficient prejudice so as to merit a stay of the proceedings can nevertheless be taken into account in mitigation of penalty. However it provides a salutory lesson to appellants that errors of law by the domestic tribunal do not necessarily lead to lesser penalties.
