Paragraph 12 Requirement to obtain specialist CPD points
In respect of each relevant period, the required number of specialist CPD points is the number equivalent to half of the number of whole months during the relevant period for which the registrant has particulars of one or more entries entered against the registrant’s name in the appropriate register.
For the purposes of paragraph (2)—
where a registrant has more than one entry relating to a specialty throughout the relevant period, the date of the first entry of the first particular of a specialty is the date that is to be used for calculating the number of points,
if the required number of specialist CPD points determined in accordance with paragraph (2) would include any fraction of a whole number, the required number of points are to be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and
where the particulars of one or more specialties against a registrant’s name in the appropriate register are restored following an application to which rule 27 applies, the months prior to the date of the restoration are to be disregarded if at the time of restoration there were no particulars of a specialty against the registrant’s name entered in the appropriate register.
