Registration Appeals Committee

Mandate
As part of its duty to serve and protect the public interest, the College is required to have a Registration Appeals Committee, which reviews matters related to the registration of members in the College.
 
Part of the registration process requires that if the Registrar proposes to refuse to issue a certificate of registration to an applicant or proposes to place a term, condition or limitation on a member’s certificate of registration, the member must be given notice of the Registrar’s proposal, with written reasons for it. The member has 60 days to request a review of the Registrar’s proposal. If the applicant requests a review, the Registration Appeals Committee shall conduct the review.
 
The Registration Appeals Committee is not required to hold a hearing before making a decision or giving direction to the Registrar. The decision-making powers of the Registration Appeals Committee are further outlined in the Social Work and Social Service Work Act.
 
The OCSWSSW Council appointed the following people to the Registration Appeals Committee (September 16, 2008):
 
Mary Ciotti, RSW (Chair)
 
Lisa Barazzutti, Public Member
Susan Clark, Public Member
Gary Cockman, RSSW
Kim Lewis, RSSW
John Pretti, RSW
