The Joint Disciplinary Scheme (JDS) was a former regulatory body responsible for investigating accountancy-related misconduct by members of certain UK professional bodies. It has now been succeeded by other bodies such as the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) and the Accountancy and Actuarial Discipline Board (AADB).
Malpractice refers to the improper, illegal, or negligent professional activity or treatment, especially by a medical practitioner, lawyer, or public official.
