(2) In addition to the grounds in regulation 7(4), [F1NHS England] must also refuse to admit a dental practitioner to the dental performers list if the dental practitioner is not undertaking foundation training and has neither [F2satisfactorily] completed foundation training nor is exempt under paragraph (4) from the requirement to undertake foundation training.
