whether an objective basis exists to believe that the alleged
violation occurred.
  (3) To establish a subcommittee under this section, the board
shall appoint to the subcommittee three members from among
members of the board.
  (4) A subcommittee shall review the facts of an alleged
violation and, within 30 days of being established, make a
recommendation described in subsection (2) of this section. If
the subcommittee recommends that an objective basis exists, the
subcommittee shall submit a report to the board describing the
specific violation that occurred and the facts supporting the
subcommittee's recommendation.
  (5) Except as provided in subsection (6) of this section, the
board may commence disciplinary proceedings only after receiving
a report under subsection (4) of this section.
  (6) Upon a finding of serious danger to the public health or
safety, the board may impose a form of discipline as allowed
under ORS 183.430 (2) before receiving a report under subsection
(4) of this section.
  (7) The board shall adopt rules to implement this section. + }
