On Feb. 20, 2024, a panel of the Inquiry Committee approved a consent agreement between BCCNM and Colin R. Hall to address conduct issues underlying the registrant's guilty pleas to sexual offences, and for engaging in workplace harassment of colleagues.
The Inquiry Committee found that the most severe outcome was necessary to ensure that public safety was not compromised and to maintain confidence in the regulator's mandate of protecting the public.
The registrant has voluntarily agreed to terms equivalent to a limit and/or condition on their practice, including:
a. Cancellation of their registration and a prohibition on reapplying for five years.
In the event that the registrant reapplies for practising registration in the future, the registrant will be required to satisfy the Registration Committee that they meet the requirements of fitness, competence, and good character.
The Inquiry Committee is satisfied that the terms will protect the public.
