UNREGISTERED DENTISTS.
For some time past a number of unregistered dentists have been eager to secure registration. Recently sixteen people petitioned Parliament praying that legislation might be introduced to enable any person with experience in practical dentistry extending over a prescribed period to qualify for registration after submitting to a. proper test by examination or otherwise as to his qualifications. Yesterday the Public Health Committee recommended that the petition should receive consideration from the Government. It was further recommended that, should the Minister introduce legislation affecting section 22 of the Act, provision should be made enabling those petitioners who had for three years past been per-^ forming dental operations, under the im-' mediate super vision of a registered dentist, to sit for full' qualification by special examination. The House adopted the report.
