Full description

The Dental Technicians Licensing Committee was constituted under Part 1 of the Dental Technicians Act 1972 (No. 8287). The Act came into operation on 1/12/1974. The Committee was responsible for supervising the conduct of dental technicians and the practice of dental mechanics by dental technicians. The Committee consisted of eight members, each from a different professional body. The final meeting of the Committee was held on 14/06/2000. The Dental Practice Act 1999 (No. 26/1999) provided for a single regulatory body, the Dental Practice Board of Victoria (VA 4868), to replace the existing Dental Board, Advanced Dental Technicians Qualifications Board and Dental Technicians Licencing Committee.
