MEDICAL REGISTRATION ORDINANCE - SECT 13

Degrees, etc.

(1) No degree or qualification shall be entered on the General  Register,
either on the first registration or by way of addition to a registered name,
unless the Registrar is satisfied by such evidence as he may consider
sufficient that the person claiming such degree or qualification is entitled
thereto. (Amended 7 of 1996 s. 8)

(2) Every person registered under this Ordinance who obtains any additional
degree or other qualification other than the qualification in respect of which
he has been registered, shall be entitled subject to the provisions of this
section to have such additional degree or other qualification inserted in the
General Register in substitution for or in addition to the qualification
previously registered. (Amended 7 of 1996 s. 8)

(3) The Council may decide what additional degrees and other qualifications
may be entered on the General Register. (Amended 25 of 1984 s. 6; 7 of 1996 s.
8)

(4) Where the Council is of the opinion that a degree or qualification,
previously allowed to be entered on the General Register, is no longer
appropriate to be entered on it, the Council may, after giving notice to all
the persons registered with the degree or qualification, erase the degree or
qualification from the entry on the General Register of the persons concerned.
