EXPLANATORY NOTE

The object of this Proclamation is to commence the uncommenced amendment to the Chiropractors and Osteopaths Act 1991 contained in the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act (No. 3) 1992.

That amendment makes it illegal for a person to manipulate the joints of the human spinal column for any purpose unless the person falls within a class specified in section 4 of the Chiropractors and Osteopaths Act 1991. Previously that section only regulated such manipulation when it was done for therapeutic purposes.
