Examples of national law in a sentence
The purpose of a Health Profession Agreement (HPA) is described in s.26(1) of the National Law, which provides that AHPRA must enter into a HPA with a National Board that makes provision for: • fees payable by health practitioners and others in relation to the health profession for which the National Board is established, • the National Board’s annual budget, • the services to be provided to the National Board by AHPRA to enable the National Board to carry out its functions.
This is largely because AHPRA relies on National Boards to perform their functions consistent with the National Law objectives and in line with procedures established by AHPRA for ensuring effective and efficient operation of National Boards and to comply with procedures for development of professional standards that are in accordance with good regulatory practice.
Part of the function of the PCA Services is to provide you with access to data about Individual Healthcare Providers (Register Data) that is extracted from the national register maintained by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency in accordance with the National Law.
To achieve the objectives of the National Law through different and complementary functions, the National Board and AHPRA understand that a sustainable partnership is essential.
