Health professional councils

What’s this about?

The Health Practitioner Regulation (NSW) Regulation 2016 is expected to be repealed on 1 September 2025 and the ministry is looking at remaking the regulation.

A significant aspect of the regulation relates to the composition of the 15 health professional councils established for the 16 health professions under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law (NSW).

In anticipation of the regulation’s repeal and remake, the Ministry of Health is reviewing the composition of the councils to help ensure the councils operate as effectively and efficiently as possible.

This discussion paper (PDF 292.36KB) looks at the current composition of the councils and raises some questions about whether the current composition is still appropriate.

NSW Health is seeking feedback about remaking the Health Practitioner Regulation 2016.
