(Dec 15, 2015 - REGIStration Reinstated)
Pursuant to section 36 of the Health Professions Act, the Inquiry Committee has reached a Consent Agreement with Mr. Ian Colin Sands, effective June 22, 2015, in which he agreed to a temporary suspension of his pharmacist licence. This was the result of investigations conducted on a pharmacy under the management of Mr. Sands where several practice violations and illegal transport of controlled substances were allegedly found. Mr. Sands agreed to the following terms, among others:
- Suspension of registration as a pharmacist until December 15, 2015, effective immediately.
- Upon reinstatement from suspension, prohibition from acting as a pharmacy manager until June 15, 2016.
- Notification about this suspension will be published on the College website, pursuant to s. 39.3 of the Health Professions Act.
In the same Consent Agreement, Mr. Sands also agreed to not repeat the alleged conduct, to thoroughly review the legislation which he had breached and to discontinue a court action against the College which he had commenced.
