A Standards Committee has no power to publish a practitioner's name in connection with an adverse finding absent a formal censure order; publication of identity in such cases is constrained by the r30 procedures tied to censure. Accordingly the Committee's and Review Officer's orders publishing the practitioner's name were quashed and the matter remitted to the Committee to reconsider s156 orders and, if necessary, determine name publication in accordance with r30.
