Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Council Directive 2013/59/EURATOM: Chiropractic Association of Ireland

9:00 am

Mr. Richard Brown:

Autonomously, in Europe, the other two jurisdictions were Cyprus and Lichtenstein. Chiropractors there do not have the right to own X-ray equipment but they do have referral rights. Outside Europe, I refer to Australia, the US and Canada. Chiropractors there all have the right to own and operate X-ray facilities within their practices. When we consider the numbers of chiropractors globally, which I referred to, they represent approximately 85% of chiropractors in the world today within these jurisdictions.
