28—Registration of podiatry students

        (1)         A person is not entitled to—

            (b)         provide podiatric treatment as part of a course of study related to podiatry being undertaken by the person in a place outside the State,

unless the person is registered under this section as a podiatry student.

        (2)         A person is eligible for registration as a podiatry student on the podiatry student register if the person, on application to the Board, satisfies the Board that he or she—

            (a)         genuinely requires registration on that register

                  (i)         to enable the person to undertake a course of study that provides qualifications for registration on the general register; or

            (c)         is a fit and proper person to be registered on the podiatry student register.

        (3)         If a person who applies for registration, or reinstatement of registration, on the podiatry student register is not, in the opinion of the Board, medically fit to provide podiatric treatment of the kind authorised by registration on that register, the Board may register the person on that register in pursuance of this subsection ("limited student registration ) and impose 1 or more of the following conditions on the registration:

            (a)         a condition limiting the kind of podiatric treatment that the person may provide;

            (b)         a condition limiting the period during which the registration will have effect;

            (c)         a condition requiring that the person be supervised in the provision of podiatric treatment by a particular person or by a person of a particular class;

            (d)         such other conditions as the Board thinks fit.
