This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum
79. After article 20 (entitlement to entry in Part 1 or 2 of the Register: pharmacists and pharmacy technicians)(), insert—
“Article 20: further provision relating to specified state professionals
20A.—(1) This article applies where a person holds a specified state qualification which is not a relevant European qualification and wishes to be registered under article 20.
(2) This article does not apply if the qualification held by the person is not a relevant European qualification because Condition 3 in article 21(1G) or, as the case may be, 22(1D) is met in relation to it.
(3) Where this article applies, the Council must specify what aptitude test or adaptation period, or aptitude test and adaptation period, must be passed or successfully completed by the person.
(4) An aptitude test or adaptation period specified under this article, or an aptitude test and adaptation period together specified under this article, must be proportionate to the difference sought to be addressed.
(5) The Council must give a person its reasons for specifying in relation to the person an aptitude test or an adaptation period, or both, if the person makes a written request for them.
(6) Where the Council specifies an aptitude test under this article, the Council must ensure that such aptitude tests are scheduled with reasonable frequency and at least once a year.”.
