Extent: E+W

(1) The grounds in regulation 14 for the removal by NHS England of a Practitioner from its performers list apply in respect of the removal of an emergency registered practitioner from its medical performers list as if—
(a) paragraph (2); and
(b) paragraphs (5) to (11),
were omitted.
(2) In addition to the grounds specified in regulation 14(1), NHS England must remove an emergency registered practitioner from the medical performers list where the emergency registered practitioner—
(a) has not, on request, provided evidence to NHS England that the certificate referred to in paragraph 2(2)(c) has been applied for (despite the undertaking to apply for the certificate); or
(b) has not provided that certificate to NHS England (despite the undertaking to provide it),
within the period specified in paragraph 2(2)(c).
(3) NHS England may also remove an emergency registered practitioner from the medical performers list where it considers such removal to be justified, after having checked—
(a) as far as reasonably practicable, the information provided with the application, in particular any information provided under regulation 4(5) or (7);
(b) with the NHS Counter Fraud Authority for relevant information relating to past or current fraud investigations involving or relating to the emergency registered practitioner and having considered these and any other facts in its possession relating to fraud involving or relating to the emergency registered practitioner; or
(c) with the Secretary of State for any relevant information relating to past or current investigations or proceedings involving or relating to the emergency registered practitioner and having considered any other facts in its possession involving or related to the emergency registered practitioner.
(4) The Authority referred to in sub-paragraph (3)(b) or the Secretary of State must, in response to a request from NHS England, supply to NHS England any information the Authority or the Secretary of State consider relevant for the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)(b) or, as the case may be, (3)(c).
