1. In disciplinary proceedings, a professional representative's obligations extend beyond merely supplying information pursuant to Article 18 of the Regulation on discipline for professional representatives ("the Regulation") to co-operating generally, since the proceedings also serve his interest, that is, to uphold or restore his professional dignity, within the meaning of Article 1(2) of the Regulation.
2. The Disciplinary Committee has the power to refer a matter to the Disciplinary Board to determine whether his conduct constitutes contempt of the Disciplinary Board that must be sanctioned.
3. The obligation to be truthful under Article 1(1), second sentence, of the Regulation applies not only to the exercise of the profession but also to statements in disciplinary proceedings.
