(2)
- (a) The council may direct the removal altogether or for a specified period from the relevant register of the name of any registered practitioner for the same reasons for which registration may be refused under sub-section

(4) shall apply to any inquiry under this section.
- (b) The council may also direct that any name so removed shall be restored.
