Details of Dr Davis’ registration, including the full list of imposed conditions, can be viewed on the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency website.

• the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal sets the decision aside
  or
  
• the Health Ombudsman removes the conditions imposed on Dr Harold Joseph Davis’ registration under section 65 of the Act.
