NURSES AND MIDWIVES ACT (NORTHERN IRELAND) 1970 - SECT 11

Approval of training schools for nurses or midwives.

11.(1) Subject to this section, the Council may grant, refuse or withdraw
approval of any training school provided by any hospital exempted from the
provisions of the Health Services Act (Northern Ireland) 1948.

(2) Where the Council is of opinion that it would be justified in refusing or
in withdrawing approval of a training school it shall serve notice of that
fact on the persons responsible for the management of that school stating the
grounds on which the Council has formed its opinion.

(3) The Council shall not proceed to a final determination of the question
whether or not to refuse or, as the case may be, to withdraw its approval of a
training school until it has offered to the persons responsible for the
management of that school an opportunity to make representations in writing to
the Council and, if so required by those persons, to be heard by the Council.

(4) A person aggrieved by a refusal or withdrawal by the Council of its
approval of a training school may, within thirty days after notice of the
refusal or, as the case may be, the withdrawal is served on the persons
responsible for the management of that school, appeal to the Minister against
that refusal or withdrawal, and the Minister shall, after considering the
matter, give such direction as he thinks proper and the Council shall comply
with any direction so given.
