Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Rules)
These Rules amend the General Medical Council (Legal Assessors) Rules 1980, which regulate the functions of legal assessors appointed by the General Medical Council to advise the Professional Conduct Committee, the Health Committee and the Preliminary Proceedings Committee on questions of law arising in proceedings before them.
The amendments are necessary as a result of the Medical (Professional Performance) Act 1995 which created two new Committees of the General Medical Council - the Assessment Referral Committee and the Committee on Professional Performance. These Rules provide for the 1980 Rules to apply to the new Committees, as well as to the existing ones.
