NOTE

• It is a matter for the individual doctor to make an application to the Medical Council for entry onto the Specialist Division of the Register(SDR).
• The Medical Council has agreed that a copy of the letter of election to membership of the ICGP is sufficient evidence of eligibility for entry onto the SDR (i.e. the applicant will not have to await receipt of the ICGP Membership Certificate).
