Section 62
Disposition versions
62. Santé Québec assumes the defence of any member of its personnel against whom judicial proceedings are brought by a third person for an act carried out in the exercise of the personnel member’s functions and pays reparation, where applicable, for the injury resulting from that act, unless a gross fault or a personal fault separable from the exercise of the personnel member’s functions has been committed.
However, in penal or criminal proceedings, Santé Québec pays the defence costs only if the person against whom judicial proceedings are brought is acquitted or if Santé Québec considers that the person acted in good faith.
