In the interests of the service, a practitioner who is the subject of disciplinary proceedings may be immediately suspended by the Director General of the Centre national de gestion des praticiens hospitaliers et des personnels de direction de la fonction publique hospitalière.
During the period of suspension, the practitioner concerned shall retain the emoluments mentioned in 1° of article R. 6152-23. However, where a court decision prohibits him from practising, his emoluments shall be subject to a deduction, which may not exceed half their amount.
At the end of the disciplinary procedure or where no decision has been taken within five months of the suspension, the suspension shall end and the person concerned shall once again receive his full emoluments. However, where the person concerned is the subject of criminal proceedings, his situation shall not be definitively settled until the decision handed down by the court hearing the case has become final.
If the person concerned has not been sanctioned or has only been given a warning or reprimand, he shall be entitled to reimbursement of the deductions made from his emoluments.
