Part 5: Other provisions about safety standards, etc. Architects Section 157: Architects: discipline and continuing professional development Effect
Discipline
	This section allows the disciplinary orders made against architects by the Professional Conduct Committee (PCC) of the Architect Registration Board (the Board), the statutory regulator of architects in the UK, to be listed alongside an architect’s entry in the Register of architects. This is to provide greater transparency to members of the public procuring architectural services as the Register entry, accessible through the Board’s website, will show whether an architect has been disciplined recently. The Board will determine rules for the length of time that a disciplinary order will be listed on the Register, depending on the severity of the order.
