(1) A registered podiatrist must not, without reasonable excuse, fail to comply with the infection control standards set out in Schedule 1 to the extent that they apply to the registered podiatrist in the practice of podiatry.
(2) In determining whether or not a registered podiatrist has a reasonable excuse for failing to comply with a standard, particular consideration is to be given to whether the podiatrist’s employer failed to provide the necessary equipment, including providing access to it and training in its use, that would have enabled the podiatrist to comply with the standard (and whether the failure to provide such equipment was reported by the podiatrist to the Director-General of the Department of Health).
