Section 17

Every person registered under this Act who obtains any medical qualification other than the qualification by virtue of which he was registered may apply to the Council to amend the Register so far as it relates to the qualifications of that person, and on any such application the Council shall, if satisfied that the applicant is entitled to the qualification in respect of which the application is made and that such qualification is of sufficient standing to warrant its being entered in the

Register, cause the Register to be amended accordingly by the insertion therein of the particulars of such qualification.

The Council shall have power to decide what higher degrees and additional qualifications shall be admitted to be entered on the

Register.
