Article 40 explained in plain English
This article deals with the Implementing Regulations of the Law:
- Issuing authority: the Minister, who is the Minister of Health under Article 1.
- Period: within 120 days of the date the Law is published.
- Publication: the Regulations are published in the Official Gazette.
The timing of their issue is linked to Article 41, which provides that the Law takes effect 120 days after its publication. The two periods are equal and start from the same date (publication of the Law), so the Regulations are expected to be issued no later than the Law takes effect.
This article follows Article 39, which subjects units, in what the Law does not provide for, to the Law of Practicing the Profession of Human Medicine and Dentistry, the Private Health Institutions Law, the Law of Practicing the Profession of Pharmacy and other related regulations.
The text before us does not state the date of the Law's publication, so the Official Gazette should be consulted for the actual date.
