Opposition to go?
Medical opposition to chiropractors must “melt away” with the establishment of a new Chiropractic Board, according to a founding member, Mr J. J. Richardson. A Christchurch chiropractor, Mr Richardson is one of four Government apHnents to the new . They include the Health Department’s director of the Hospitals Division, Dr A. J. Sinclair, and the head of orthopaedic services for the North Canterbury Hospital Board, Professor W. J. Gil-
lespie. “If we have been out of the fold in the past, we are certainly in the fold now,” Mr Richardson said. The new board will set standards of conduct and training for the profession. It is largely the result of the 1979 Commission of Inquiry into Chiropractic and replaces a now defunct board chosen solely from within the profession. Board members, including three other chiropractors, are due to meet for the first time in Wellington next week.
