In considering whether an exempt person M2 has reached the required standard of proficiency for the purposes of paragraph (1)(c), the Registrar—

a

shall take into account all his relevant qualifications, knowledge and experience, wherever acquired; and

b

if the applicant holds a qualification which—

i

was granted otherwise than in a relevant European State, but

ii

has been accepted by a relevant European State, other than the United Kingdom, as qualifying him to practise as an osteopath in that State,

shall take that acceptance into account.
