Summary of Proposal:
In Ontario, the regulation of health professions is based on a self-governance model. There are 26 health regulatory colleges governing 28 health professions under the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991, (RHPA) and their respective health profession Acts.
The RHPA was amended in October 2022 to reduce barriers to registration and require Colleges to establish an Emergency Class. To meet this requirement, the College of Dental Technologists of Ontario is proposing to amend its Registration Regulation made under the Dental Technology Act, 1991, to add an emergency class certificate of registration amongst other proposed amendments.
The proposed regulation amendments are subject to prior review by the Minister of Health and the approval of the Lieutenant Governor in Council.
