   7. Registrar Makes Interim Suspension Recommendation
For the
second time within a year the Registrar has
recommended to the Board that an electrician’s
registration be suspended before a complaint against
the electrician was considered
by a Complaints Assessment Committee.
The Registrar recommended that the electrician
registration held by Mr. Suresh Chandra (E 11988) of
Auckland be suspended in the interim as the
Registrar considered that there was a
need to protect the safety of members of the public
particularly given that:
- general
purpose switch socket outlets had been installed in
a number of locations where protection from the ingress
of moisture could not be provided, and
- non
compliant prescribed electrical work has been
certified as compliant with the regulatory
requirements.
The Board
accepted the recommendation and suspended the
electrician registration held by Mr. Chandra in the
interim.
Mr. Chandra
applied to the Board for a revocation of the interim
suspension and the Board declined the application.
