August 2016 Speak Out 17
end of 2016 and over the coming months there will be an
opportunity for the Association to once again provide a
written application for the speech pathology profession to be
included.
To support an application for inclusion in the National
Scheme, Speech Pathology Australia will request that all
members complete a short online survey (to be sent out via
email in coming months) to provide your views on support for
national registration and information about your willingness
to pay registration fees as part of a National Scheme. This
information, along with evidence of quality and safety risks
associated with our care, will be included in an application
made by the Association on behalf of all speech pathologists
in Australia.
