Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

The Professions Supplementary to Medicine Act 1960 was extended to the profession of Arts Therapist by an Order made under section 10 of that Act in March 1997. As a result it is necessary to amend the Registration Rules 1962 made under that Act so as to include references to registration with the Arts Therapists Board established under the Act.
