The president of the central or regional council on whose register the pharmacist is entered at the date on which the disciplinary proceedings are commenced or, failing this, the council on whose register he was last entered, will receive the pleadings and documents produced by the parties. The President of 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 pharmacist being prosecuted changes section or place of practice, the president of the central or regional council on whose roll the interested party is newly registered will also receive the pleadings and exhibits filed and may submit observations under the same conditions.
