This draft Order sets out a proposed constitution for the GOsC. It provides details of the composition of the council, the terms of office for council members, and criteria for the disqualification, suspension or removal of members from office.

The Health Care and Associated Professions (Miscellaneous Amendments) Order 2008 was made on 9 July. It makes a number of changes to the constitutional arrangements for the General Osteopathic Council. Instead of the constitutional details of the GOsC being set out in the Osteopaths Act 1993, these details must now be set out in a separate Constitution Order made by the Privy Council.

This paper considers the proposed constitution of the General Osteopathic Council.

Please respond using the questionnaire no late than 7 November 2008.

Closing date: 7 November 2008
