Conclusions
Conclusions
I will dismiss the appeal by Dr Foy on all grounds.
I will grant the GMC’s appeal on ground 6 and dismiss their appeal on all other grounds.
Whilst the Panel ruled that suspension was the appropriate sanction, despite the Panel considering that the misconduct of Dr Foy bought him close to the line over which erasure would have been necessary, I consider that the appropriate sanction should be reconsidered by a Panel as soon as is practicable hereafter. Until that time Dr Foy should remain suspended from registration.
