About the team and what we do

The Specialist Casework and Complex Cases Team (SCCT) manages some of the most complex, sensitive and high-profile fitness to practise cases within the organisation. These cases often involve significant stakeholder interest, Public Inquiries, and matters that attract national media attention. The team works closely with colleagues across the organisation, including media and executive functions, to ensure cases are managed proportionately, fairly and with a person-centred approach.
