34—Registration of medical students

        (1)         A person is not entitled to—

            (a)         undertake a course of study that provides qualifications for registration on the general register under this Act; or

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

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

        (2)         A person is eligible for registration as a medical student on the medical 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 under this Act; or

                  (ii)         to enable the person to provide medical treatment as part of a course of study related to medicine being undertaken by the person in a place outside the State; and

            (b)         is medically fit to provide medical treatment of the kind authorised by registration on the medical student register; and

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

        (3)         If a person who applies for registration, or reinstatement of registration, on the medical student register is not, in the opinion of the Board, medically fit to provide medical 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 one or more of the following conditions on the registration:

            (a)         a condition limiting the kind of medical 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 medical treatment by a particular person or by a person of a particular class;

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