An Island nurse is facing restrictions as he waits for his professional body to determine if he's fit to practice.

Allan Thomson appeared before the Nursing and Midwifery Council's investigating committee for an interim order hearing in London this week.

Mr Thomson, a registered nurse who deals with adults, must work at all times under the direct supervision of another registered nurse and hold weekly meetings about his performance.

The restrictions will be in place until allegations, which haven't been made public by the NMC, are heard.
