The decisions of the disciplinary chamber imposing a temporary or permanent ban on practising pharmacy or the orders of its chairman shall specify the period of enforcement or the date on which the penalty is to take effect, taking into account the time limit for appeal and, in the case of the national disciplinary chamber, where applicable, the time limit for lodging an objection or an appeal to the Court of Cassation together with submissions seeking a stay of enforcement.
If the decision does not specify a period of enforcement, the penalty shall take effect on the day following that on which it becomes final.
Where the acts complained of have revealed a lack of professional competence on the part of the pharmacist, the Disciplinary Chamber may order him, in application of article L. 4234-6-1, to undergo training, unless the Chamber is informed that an expert opinion ordered in application of article R. 4221-15-4 is being carried out or has been carried out in the year preceding the registration of the complaint on which it has ruled.
The Disciplinary Board shall forward its decision to the competent Regional Council or Central Council, which shall immediately implement the procedure provided for in articles R. 4221-15-4 to R. 4221-15-6, in order, in particular, to define the terms and conditions of the training ordered by the Disciplinary Board and to pronounce, where appropriate, a decision to temporarily suspend, in whole or in part, the right to practise. The competent board shall report to the chamber on the implementation of its decision.
