has obtained his registration by a fraudulent or an incorrect statement;
has had his qualification for registration under this Act withdrawn or cancelled by the authority through which it was acquired or by which it was awarded; or
has had his registration as an oral health therapist in any other country withdrawn, suspended or cancelled by the authority which registered him.
(2)
The Council shall, before exercising its powers under subsection (1), notify the registered oral health therapist concerned of its intention to take such action and shall give the registered oral health therapist an opportunity to submit reasons, within such period as the Council may determine, why his name should not be removed.
(3)
Any person aggrieved by an order under subsection (1) may, within 30 days of being notified of the order, appeal to the Minister whose decision shall be final.
