Appeals against decisions on inclusion in the RegistersU.K.

23.—(1) If a person applies to the Registrar of the GMC in order to have his name included in the General Practitioner Register or the Specialist Register pursuant to article 10(3) or 13(3), and—

(a)he satisfies the Registrar of the GMC that he is a registered medical practitioner pursuant to article 10(3)(b) or 13(3)(b); but

(b)his application for inclusion in either of the Registers is unsuccessful because he fails to satisfy the Registrar of the GMC that he is an eligible general practitioner or eligible specialist pursuant to article 10(3)(a) or 13(3)(a),

the decision of the Registrar shall be treated as an appealable registration decision under Schedule 3A to the Medical Act (registration appeals) and the procedure in that Schedule shall accordingly apply.

(2) Failure by the GMC to notify a person of the matters specified in article 16(1) within the time specified in article 16(2) or, where applicable, article 16(4) shall be treated as a decision against which a person may appeal under paragraph 4 of Schedule 3A to the Medical Act.
