Adjournment Matters. - Medical Practitioners (Amendment) Act 2002.

 

The council submitted four sets of draft rules for possible amendments and approval relating to the areas outlined above. The Minister for Health and Children has examined the draft rules and suggested a number of amendments, which the council has addressed. He is currently re-examining the latest draft rules returned to him recently by the council. It is his intention to ensure that the draft rules will meet the requirements of the Act and to this end he has carried out consultations within the Department, the Medical Council and the training bodies. This process is very nearly at an end and he hopes to be in a position to decide on the draft rules in the very near future.
