    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Physiotherapists Bill will ensure that the physiotherapists practising in this country are regulated and are registered so that anybody who is going to practise as a physiotherapist is issued with a certificate. Therefore, if you walk to a clinic you are able to tell whether one is trained, or when you log into the internet you are able to access information on physiotherapists. Currently, as the law is, you will find that everybody will walk around and say that he is a physiotherapist, but there is no way you can verify because there is no register. We do not have a documented way of even holding them to account. We have no way of disciplining them. This Bill provides that once the physiotherapists are registered, that register will be maintained and updated annually. They will have a period within which they will be supposed to submit their registration. This way, their code of conduct will be regulated and if there are malpractices, there will be a body to petition them to look into your issue. They should have a disciplinary committee which can look critically The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
