DENTAL REGULATIONS (AMENDMENT)

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

No. 19 of 1982

The Minister for Health has made regulations under the Dentists Registration Ordinance 1931.

An amendment to the Ordinance introduced the requirement that a number of fees be prescribed in addition to the initial registration and annual registration fees previously prescribed.  As the existing fees were to be increased from $2.10 also, the amendment to the regulations repeals regulation 5 and replaces it with a new table of fees.
