Australian medical college leader suspended from position over alleged health and safety breach
The Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) has suspended Dr Sharmila Chandran, president-elect of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (RACP), until September 20, 2026, for allegedly violating a SafeWork NSW prohibition notice that restricted board member communication with RACP staff (except the CEO), exposing employees to immediate and serious psychological health risks. This action follows months of internal board conflict—including the early ousting of outgoing president Prof Jennifer Martin—and the ACNC has appointed Adjunct Prof Susan Pascoe as interim chair, with the RACP agreeing to collaborate with regulators to meet governance and workplace safety obligations.
