The registrar is required to keep his register correct, and to make from time to time the necessary alterations in the addresses or qualifications of the persons registered (ib., s. 30).
Every person registered who obtains a higher degree or other qualification is entitled to have it inserted in the register in substitution of or in addition to the qualification previously registered, on the payment of such fees as the council may appoint (ib., s. 34).
No qualification is entitled to be entered on the register unless the registrar be satisfied by proper evidence that the person claiming it is entitled thereto. Appeal lies from the registrar’s decision to the council (ib., s. 35).
The registrar, if dissatisfied with the evidence adduced, may, subject to appeal to the council, refuse registration until proper evidence is furnished, duly attested by oath or affirmation before a judge of any county court (ib., s. 36).
Fraudulent Registration.—Any entry proved to the satisfaction of the council to have been fraudulently or incorrectly made may be erased from the register by order in writing of the council (ib., s. 38).
If a person procures or causes to be procured his registration by false or fraudulent representations or declarations, the registrar may, on the receipt of sufficient evidence of the falsity or fraudulent character, represent the matter to the council, and may on the written order of the president, attested by the seal of the college, erase his name from the register, and cause notice of the fact and cause to be published in the Manitoba Gazette, and after such notice has appeared such person shall cease to be a member of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, and to enjoy any privilege enjoyed or conferred by registration at any further time without the express sanction of the council (ib., s. 39).
Forfeiture of Rights.—Any registered medical practitioner convicted of felony or misdemeanor before or after the passage of the act or his registration forfeits his right to registration, and by direction of the council his name shall be erased. If a person known to have been convicted of felony or misdemeanor presents himself for registration, the registrar may refuse registration. If any person registered be judged, after due inquiry by the council, to have been guilty of infamous or unprofessional conduct in any respect, the council may direct the registrar to erase his name (ib., s. 40).
The council may, and upon the application of any three registered medical practitioners shall, cause inquiry to be made into the case of a person liable to have his name erased from the register, and on proof of such conviction or such infamous or unprofessional conduct shall cause his name to be erased; but no erasure shall be made on account of his adopting or refraining from adopting the practice of any particular theory of medicine or surgery, nor on account of conviction for a political offence out of Her Majesty’s dominions, nor on account of the conviction which ought not in the opinion of the council or committee disqualify him from the practice of medicine or surgery (ib., s. 41).
The council may order to be paid, out of funds at their disposal, such costs as to them may seem just, to any person against whom any complaint has been made which, when fully determined, is found to have been frivolous and vexatious (ib., s. 42).
