Medical Practitioners Bill 2007: Committee and Remaining Stages
12:00 pm
Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Progressive Democrats)
The title "specialist" will be designated in this legislation. After the regulations are made, it will be a matter for the council to ensure those that are qualified can call themselves specialists. It will be an offence under the Act to call oneself a specialist when one does not have a specialist qualification. It will require vigilance on the part of the Medical Council.
