Disciplinary Notice – Terry D Mulvey,<br />
Lloydminster, AB<br />
An investigation into the conduct of Mr Mulvey was<br />
commenced by the Investigation Committee of<br />
<strong>APEG</strong>BC, following notice from <strong>APEG</strong>GA of a copy of<br />
its Appeal Board’s Decision revoking his membership.<br />
Mr Mulvey was a member of both <strong>APEG</strong>GA<br />
and <strong>APEG</strong>BC.<br />
<strong>APEG</strong>BC’s Investigation Committee<br />
requested that Mr Mulvey provide information<br />
or records related to <strong>APEG</strong>GA’s<br />
disciplinary matter and Mr Mulvey’s<br />
subsequent activities. Mr Mulvey failed<br />
to provide the requested information and<br />
the Investigation Committee recom-<br />
mended that an inquiry be held.<br />
The Discipline Committee has<br />
approved an agreement that, in lieu<br />
of the Association proceeding with<br />
the inquiry, Mr Mulvey will resign<br />
from the Association. If Mr Mulvey<br />
applies for reinstatement as a member<br />
of the Association, the Association<br />
will be at liberty to continue with<br />
an inquiry or investigation. In addition,<br />
if Mr Mulvey applies for reinstatement,<br />
he will be required to pay<br />
the Association’s costs in connection<br />
with the Notice of Inquiry.<br />
As there is no greater penalty than<br />
loss of practice rights, the Association<br />
is satisfi ed with the resolution of<br />
this matter.<br />
Disciplinary Hearing –<br />
Dr Anthony A Salway PGeo,<br />
Nelson, BC<br />
On January 24, 2008, a Panel of the Discipline<br />
Committee of <strong>APEG</strong>BC considered<br />
allegations that Dr Anthony Salway<br />
demonstrated unprofessional conduct<br />
by his neglect or refusal to provide a<br />
timely response to communications<br />
from his clients. The Panel found Dr<br />
Salway liable.<br />
In its Determination the Panel found<br />
that “While in many cases a failure to<br />
provide a timely communication may<br />
not constitute unprofessional conduct,<br />
in this case the fi nding of liability turns<br />
on the gravity, consequences and<br />
importance to Dr Salway’s clients of the<br />
failure to respond to their requests for<br />
further information.” In the Discipline<br />
Committee’s Order regarding Penalty<br />
and Costs, Dr Salway was reprimanded<br />
and ordered to pay $16,373 towards<br />
<strong>APEG</strong>BC’s costs.<br />
discipline and enforcement<br />
Copies of the agreement and determination can be<br />
found on the <strong>APEG</strong>BC website under “Enforcement<br />
and Discipline.” Further information on the investigation<br />
and discipline processes can also be obtained by<br />
