4.04. (1) In the case of suspension or striking off of a pharmacist who is the sole owner of a pharmacy, or where the suspension or striking off is imposed simultaneously on all members of a partnership of pharmacists who are the owners of a pharmacy, the secretary of the Order must, after consultation with the member who has been struck off or suspended, ensure that his records, books and registers are entrusted to another member of the Order practising in the same region.
(2) The secretary of the Order must notify the public of such changes by posting, on the interior frontage of the pharmacy belonging to the pharmacist who has been suspended or struck off, during the entire duration of such suspension or striking off, an advertisement stipulating that the records, books and registers of the pharmacist who has been suspended or struck off are in the possession of the pharmacist appointed in accordance with subsection 1, from such date to such date, indicating the address, telephone number and business hours of the latter.
(3) The pharmacist appointed in accordance with subsection 1 shall be the provisional custodian of the records, books and registers of the pharmacist who has been suspended or struck off for the entire duration of such suspension or striking off.
The mandate of the said pharmacist shall be restricted to giving every patient of the pharmacist who has been suspended or struck off the roll all the information he considers appropriate to their treatment and to keeping such records, books and registers up-to-date; without limiting the generality of the foregoing, he shall not, under pretext of his mandate and for the purpose of assisting the pharmacist who has been suspended or struck off, practise pharmacy within the meaning of the first paragraph of section 17 of the Pharmacy Act (chapter P-10) to the latter’s profit.
