If the licensee had corrected past non-compliance or paid criminal penalties etc., would the record still be published?

Question

Accepted Answer

The purpose of the watchlist is to help members of the public make better informed decisions.

Informing the public about a history of previous egregious behaviour may still be relevant, even if the past non-compliance is corrected or if penalties have been paid.

MOH will continuously review these watchlists and may consider removing entries, taking into account various factors (e.g., the licensee’s continued compliance with the Act, whether the non-compliance has been rectified, etc.).
