Notice Title

Encouraging registrant engagement in fitness to practise processes

Notice Description

The aim of this project is to identify what, if any, lessons we can learn from behavioural science to help us design a fitness to practise process that encourages maximum and meaningful early engagement from registrants (doctors and medical associate professionals) during an investigation. Among other benefits, meaningful engagement would result in registrants providing us with evidence needed to inform decision making in a consensual disposal process.
