31. Suspension from practicing of registered persons who have become of unsound mind

 

 

(1) When it appears to the council from information on oath that a professional or technical surveyor is mentally ill to such an extent that it would be contrary to the public interest to allow him to continue to practise, the council may, if it deems fit, hold an inquiry mutatis mutandis in accordance with the provisions of section 30 in respect of such person.

 

(2) If the council finds that such professional or technical surveyor has so become mentally ill, it may order his suspension for a specified period from practising his profession or calling.

 

(3) The council may extend for any period determined by it the period of operation of, or withdraw, any order made under this section.
