The Medical Council of NSW (the Council) is a statutory authority established under the Health Practitioner Regulation National Law (NSW). The Council’s main responsibility is to protect the public by regulating the profession. This is achieved by working in partnership with Health Care Complaints Commission to manage complaints about the health, performance and conduct of registered practitioners in NSW.
The current term of Council members is due to expire in June 2021. The Council has contacted the College seeking ONE nomination of a member to be considered for appointment. Final approval of Council membership is granted by the NSW Minister of Health.

Note that while the attached Information for Nominating Bodies Package outlines that nominees are not required to provide written responses to the NSW Minister of Health to the selection criteria, members are asked to provide this as part of their application to the College to assist in the College selection process.
As outlined in the Information for Nominating Bodies Package the NSW Minister of Health will undertake a separate nomination process to appointment to the Council membership, once all nominations have been received from nominating organisations.
