National Advisory Council on Nurse Education and Practice; Notice of Meeting, 38699-38700 [2015-16135]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 129 / Tuesday, July 7, 2015 / Notices C. The Nature and Extent of Voluntary Steps To Mitigate the Impact on the Public Next, I consider whether Liu has raised specific facts showing that there is a genuine and substantial issue of fact that requires a hearing concerning the nature and extent of voluntary steps to mitigate the impact of his offense on the public, including full cooperation with any investigations (including the extent of disclosure to appropriate authorities of all wrongdoing) and any other actions taken to substantially limit potential or actual adverse effects on the public health. In the Notice of Opportunity for a Hearing, ORA stated, ‘‘You took no steps to mitigate the impact on the public of your actions.’’ Liu has not challenged this statement. As such, I agree with ORA that the nature and extent of Liu’s voluntary steps to mitigate the impact to the public weighs in favor of debarment. D. The Impact of Changes in Ownership, Management, or Operations In the Notice of Opportunity for Hearing, ORA determined that this factor was not applicable for consideration. Liu has not challenged that determination. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES E. Prior Convictions Under the FD&C Act or Related Acts In the Notice of Opportunity for Hearing, ORA acknowledged that the Agency was unaware of any prior convictions involving matters within the jurisdiction of FDA. The lack of previous violations of the FD&C Act or related statutes by Liu weighs against debarment. III. Findings and Order The Director of the Office of Scientific Integrity, under section 306(b)(3)(A) of the FD&C Act and under authority delegated to him, finds that Liu has been convicted of a felony for conduct relating to the importation of food into the United States. Accordingly, FDA may debar Liu from importing articles of food or offering such articles for import into the United States for a period of not more than 5 years. I have considered the arguments raised by Liu regarding the relevant factors listed in section 306(c)(3) of the FD&C Act and have determined that Liu has raised no genuine and substantial issues of fact that require resolution at an evidentiary hearing. I have considered the factors in section 306(c)(3) of the FD&C Act. The nature and seriousness of Liu’s offense, Liu’s management participation in the offense, and the lack of any voluntary VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:31 Jul 06, 2015 Jkt 235001 steps to mitigate the impact of the offense weigh in favor of debarring. Although Liu appears to have no prior criminal convictions involving matters within the jurisdiction of FDA, that consideration does not counterbalance to a sufficient degree the remaining considerations to warrant decreasing the period of debarment. Of particular note is the nature and seriousness of the offense, in light of the volume of honey that was imported, the amount of duties that were avoided, and the fact that false statements were made with regard to two shipments of honey. I agree with ORA’s proposed period of debarment and find that a debarment of 5 years is appropriate. As a result of the foregoing findings, Liu is debarred for a period of 5 years from importing articles of food or offering such articles for import into the United States, effective (see DATES). Under section 301(cc) of the FD&C Act, the importing or offering for import into the United States of an article of food by, with the assistance of, or at the direction of Liu is a prohibited act. Any application by Liu for termination of debarment under section 306(d) of the FD&C Act should be identified with Docket No. FDA–2011– N–0169 and sent to the Division of Dockets Management Branch (see ADDRESSES). All such submissions are to be filed in four copies. The public availability of information in these submissions is governed by 21 CFR 10.20(j). Publicly available submissions may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management Branch between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
