HEALTH PRACTITIONERS ACT - SECT 28

Special grounds for refusing to register

Without limiting section 22, the relevant Board may determine that the applicant is not entitled to be registered if:

        (a)     the applicant's right of practice under a foreign health care practice law has been cancelled or suspended for a reason relating to the person's professional conduct or competence or capacity to practise;

        (b)     the applicant has been convicted in the Territory or elsewhere of a crime or an offence of a kind that, in the Board's opinion, makes it not in the public interest to allow the applicant to practise; or

        (c)     the Board considers the applicant's use of alcohol or a drug may impact on his or her ability to practise.
