Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Health and Social Care Professionals Act 2005 (Section 95(3)) (Variation of Title: Chiropodist) Regulations 2022

Mr. Aidan Tumbleton:

CORU seeks to protect the titles of podiatrist and chiropodist. Anybody who wants to practise under those professional titles must be registered with CORU. If not, then CORU has an enforcement option to take a prosecution for the misuse of a protected title. CORU will also buttress that with an information campaign that tells people if they want to avail of these services to please check that the professional is on the CORU register.
