Giving a witness statement
This factsheet gives you more information on providing a witness statement for a fitness to practise investigation.
Attending a hearing to give evidence
Where there is a serious concern about a pharmacy professional, it’s important to present the evidence at a hearing so the fitness to practise committee can decide what to do to protect patients and the public.
If we ask you to give evidence at a hearing, you can find out more about what you need to do in our factsheet.
You can find out more about getting to the hearing and what to bring in our guide on attending a hearing.
If you have any questions ahead of the hearing, your witness liaison officer will be able to tell you more about the process and what we can do to make it easier for you.
After the hearing
Your witness liaison officer will let you know the outcome of the case. It’ll be made available to the public in a ‘determination document’, published on our website here. This outlines the committee’s decision and explains the reasons for it.
