(2) Subject to the provisions of paragraphs (3) and (5), where, in regard to a person whose name is in the list of a doctor providing general medical services in the area of the Board, the Board after due enquiry including consultation in writing with the doctor is satisfied, either—
(a)that the person no longer resides in that part of the area of the Board where the doctor has undertaken to provide such services, or

(3) Without prejudice to paragraph (2), where the Board consults a doctor in writing about the possible removal of the name of a person from his list, it shall remove that name from the list six months after that consultation unless the doctor satisfies the Board that he is still responsible for providing general medical services for that person.
