Regulation 13C

For the purposes of section 15(3)(b)(ii) of the Act, the requisite continuing professional development units that a registered surveyor is required to obtain during the qualifying period is at least 20 continuing professional development units, of which —

The Board may issue a practising certificate to a registered surveyor notwithstanding that he has failed to obtain the requisite continuing professional development units during the qualifying period if the registered surveyor gives an undertaking that he will obtain the shortfall in the requisite continuing professional development units within 12 months immediately following the last day of the qualifying period.

Any continuing professional development units obtained by the registered surveyor in the circumstances referred to in paragraph (2) shall be disregarded for the purpose of any subsequent application by the registered surveyor for a practising certificate.

Notwithstanding paragraphs (1) and (2), the Board may, in such special circumstances as it may determine, issue a practising certificate to a registered surveyor who has obtained such lower number of continuing professional development units during the qualifying period as the Board may allow.
