Disciplinary Measure Review Based on Time-Limited Register

The appellant challenged the supervisory authority's consideration of disciplinary actions dating back to 2000 when setting a current disciplinary measure, arguing that per the relevant professional law, disciplinary measures should be deleted from the register after five years, similar to criminal records under current law, rather than continuing to be considered as the authority suggested based on older legal interpretations. The court ruled that the more lenient standard ("lex mitior") applicable to criminal record deletions should be applied to the professional disciplinary register, concluding that only disciplinary measures from the last five years are relevant for determining the current measure to ensure consistency, irrespective of which canton's authority is acting.
