The Barbados Association of medical Practitioners (BAMP) say it supporting a Government regulation requiring them to continually upgrade their professional education to remain registered.
President of BAMP, Dr Carlos Chase, says the initiative was one the doctors' union were pushing to have introduced formally for years.
"BAMP is wll aware of the need for doctors to keep current and we have a twice yearly continuing medical education conerence in conjunction with the University of the West Indies for over 30 years. What this new regulation does is to make it mandatory for all doctors to have continuing medical education", Chase said.
