8. Chartered administrators shall at all times respect the client’s right to consult another chartered administrator, a member of another professional order or any other competent person with whom they must, where necessary, work in close cooperation.
Chartered administrators shall inform the client as soon as they realize that it would be in the client’s interest to seek the services of another professional regarding an important aspect of the case.
Chartered administrators may not act or intervene if another professional or another competent person, such as another chartered administrator, is already involved in the case, unless they inform both that person and the client.
