Article 58 Matters relating to the medical practitionerI1

Subject to sub-paragraph (3), in a case falling within paragraph 2, any matter, question or proceeding relating to any medical practitioner under the 1997 Regulations that had not been finally decided before 1st April 2004, shall be treated as though it had arisen in relation to the primary medical services performers list in which that medical practitioner has been included or, but for that matter, would have been included and shall continue to be dealt with by the Board.

In a case where the medical practitioner’s name was included on a medical list immediately before 1st April 2004 and if he was then suspended from that list, that suspension shall equally apply to the primary medical services performers list in which his name is included on and after 1st April 2004 as it did, in relation to the medical list, before that date.

In any case where there is any continuing matter and that matter had not been finally decided before 1st April 2004, it shall be treated as though it had arisen in relation to the primary medical services performers list in which that medical practitioner has been included or, but for that matter, would have been included.
