Western Australian Numbered Acts Western Australian Numbered Acts (1) If a
medical practitioner practises medicine under a form of business
structure recognised by law (the "business") other than —
(a) a
practice on his or her own account; or
(b) a
partnership in which all of the partners are medical practitioners,
the business must give
the Board written notice of the particulars prescribed by the regulations.
Penalty: a fine of $1 000.
(2) A business must
give the Board written notice of any change to the particulars that the
business has given to the Board within 14 days after the change occurs.
Penalty: a fine of $1 000.
(3) If the business is
a partnership, this section applies to the partnership as if the partnership
were a person, but any offence against this section that would otherwise be an
offence by a partnership is to be taken to have been committed by each of the
partners.
(4) In
subsection (1) the reference to a form of business structure recognised
by law does not include an agency or a board as those terms are defined in the
