EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order approves Rules of the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) in respect of registration on the basis of qualifications awarded by institutions in the United Kingdom before 9th May 2000, where an applicant practised as an osteopath before 9th May 2000, has not practised as an osteopath in the United Kingdom on or after 9th May 2000, has a good reason for not having made a successful application for registration during the transitional period after the statutory register held by the GOsC was opened (on 9th May 1998), and is capable of the competent and safe practice of osteopathy.
Rule 2 sets out the matters on which the Registrar must be satisfied in order that the applicant’s relevant unrecognised UK qualification can be treated as a recognised qualification. It also contains a power to require applicants to take a test of competence in order to satisfy the Registrar that they are capable of the competent and safe practice of osteopathy – and further makes provision for the appointment of assessors.
Rule 3 applies, to the case of applicants seeking registration under these Rules, provisions of the General Osteopathic Council (Application for Registration and Fees) Rules Order of Council 2000 (scheduled to SI 2000/1038) (“the 2000 Fees Rules”) as to the form and manner of an application for registration. It also provides that such applications made on or after 1st January 2011 must be refused.
Rule 4 provides that, where a person has registered by virtue of these Rules, the register may contain a note to that effect.
Rule 5 amends the 2000 Fees Rules so that the standard fee for processing applications to which these Rules relate is £1,250. The amendment to the 2000 Fees Rules also has the effect of removing a now redundant charging provision relating to applications made during the expired transitional period.
