The departmental council on whose roll the practitioner is registered on the date on which the disciplinary proceedings are initiated or, failing this, the council on whose roll he was last registered, will be notified of the pleadings and documents produced by the parties. This council may submit observations in the number and within the time required in the communication. These are communicated to the other parties.
If, in the course of the investigation, the practitioner being prosecuted moves to another department, the departmental council on whose roll the interested party is newly registered also receives the pleadings and exhibits submitted to the file and may submit observations under the same conditions.
