The Board unlawfully took money from us. When it was bought to their attention they told us basically, to “piss off”.
When we proved it to the Regulations Review Committee (RRC), the Government and the Board told us to “piss off”.
When we proved it to the Ombudsman, the Government and Board told us to “piss off”.
When we again proved it to the RRC, the Board told us to “piss off” and put in another Gazette notice KNOWING it to be unlawful.
At the same time the Government told us to “piss off” and they changed the law.
We have complained to the Minister about Section 52 exemptions, about conflicts of interest, about fees and NOTHING has been done so in effect we have been told to “piss off” by him as well.
We have complained about the legality of Continuing Professional Development in its current form and the Minister, the Board and the RRC have all told us to “piss off” - so now it’s OUR turn.
Come licensing time 2014 - it’s time for us to tell them to “PISS OFF”.
