National Health Service Reform and Health Care Professions Act 2002

Sections 25 to 29: The Council for the Regulation of Health Care Professionals

132.Parliament has established statutory frameworks for a number of health care professions within which the professions regulate themselves.  For the most part there are separate enactments for each professional group (doctors; dentists; nurses, midwives and health visitors; opticians; pharmacists; osteopaths; chiropractors and the twelve professions coming within the remit of the Health Professions Council).  Each of these groups has its own regulatory body operating within its own legal framework:

  • The General Medical Council – Medical Act 1983

  • The General Dental Council – Dentists Act 1984

  • The Nursing and Midwifery Council – Nursing and Midwifery Order 2001

  • The General Optical Council – Opticians Act 1989

  • The Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain – Pharmacy Act 1954, Medicines Act 1968 (and in Northern Ireland, The Pharmaceutical Society of Northern Ireland – Pharmacy (Northern Ireland) Order 1976

  • The General Osteopaths Council – Osteopaths Act 1993

  • The General Chiropractic Council – Chiropractors Act 1994

  • The Health Professions Council – Health Professions Order 2001

133.The different enactments make provisions which, with very few exceptions, could until recently only be changed by means of primary legislation.  Section 60 and Schedule 3 of the Health Act, therefore provided a framework within which Her Majesty by Order in Council can modify the enactments affecting professional regulation and regulate any other health care profession.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.
