The arts therapists open their register

Abstract

After nearly 10 years of negotiation, the professions of art, music and dramatherapy became state registered through an extension to the Act of Professions Supplementary to Medicine 1960 in the House of Lords on 26 March 1997. This was almost the last piece of legislation to be passed by the Conservative Government. Baroness Cumberlege, Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health, presented the petition in the Lords in a very positive and much appreciated speech, referring to the arts therapies as the first wholly psychotherapeutic profession to be covered by the Act.
