EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

No. 30 of 1977

	The Physiotherapists Registration Ordinance 1977 which was notified in the Commonwealth of Australia Gazette of 18 November 1977 provides for the registration of those who practise physiotherapy in the A.C.T. in order to protect the public from unqualified persons and to maintain the standards of the profession in the A.C.T.

	The Ordinance provides that fees payable under the Ordinance shall be as prescribed and the Regulations therefore prescribe these fees.  The Regulations also prescribe the subjects for examination for registration of physiotherapists under section 14 of the Ordinance.
