Cabinet Approves Introduction Of Dentists (Amendment) Bill, 2017
The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister Narendra
Modi has given its approval for introduction of the Dentists (Amendment) Bill,
2017 in Parliament
The approval is subject to modifications of drafting or
consequential nature, if any, as may be considered necessary by the Legislative
Department by amending the Dentists Act, 1948 (16 of 1948).
As per the existing Act, it was required to have the
representation of dentists registered as Central Government nominees in the
Dental Council of India and the election of four/ two members from there to the
State/ Joint State Dental Councils.
However, it has lost relevance. With a view to reducing
the redundancy of the provisions of their representation, the Central
Government has decided to delete these provisions so that their representation
does not remain mandatory any more.
The clauses being amended include those pertaining to
certain modifications in the provisions of the Dentists Act, 1948 with regard
to:
1. The Membership of the Dental Council of India under
clause (f) of section 3, and
2. The Membership of State and Joint State Dental
Councils under clause (b) of section 21 and clause (b) of section 23 of the
said Act.
