On this episode of The Corporate Counsel Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency criminal offences unit national manager Katherine Mackenzie about her experience in government departments and why such a vocational pathway has been meaningful, the work of AHPRA, the criminal prosecutions that her team investigates and why, and how the scope of such investigations has evolved.
Ms Mackenzie also delves into the 100th prosecution that AHPRA recently undertook, what the day-to-day can look like for such professionals, the looming challenges for such work in the near future and how best to respond, best practice lessons stemming from her work, and legislative amendments on the horizon that can support the work of such criminal prosecutions.
