    The Health Profession Assistant: Consideration for the Dental Assistant Application for Regulation Volume 2 SECTION I Regulation of a New Health Profession under the Regulated Health Professions Act (RHPA), 1991: HPRAC Criteria and Process Table of Contents 1 About the Health Professions Regulatory Advsory Council (HPRAC) 1 2 The Application of the Criteria 2 3 The Criteria for Regulating a New Profession under the RHPA 4 4 The Recommendation-Making Process 13 5 Access to Information 14 Appendix A: What is Evidence? 15 1. About the Health Professions Regulatory Advisory Council (HPRAC) The Health Professions Regulatory Advisory Council (HPRAC) is established under the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991 (RHPA), with a statutory duty to advise the Minister on health professions regulatory matters in Ontario. This includes providing advice to the Minister on: . Whether unregulated health professions should be regulated; . Whether regulated health professions should no longer be regulated; . Amendments to the Regulated Health Professions Act (RHPA); . Amendments to a health profession’s Act or a regulation under any of those Acts; . Matters concerning the quality assurance programs and patient relations programs undertaken by health colleges; and, . Any matter the Minister refers to HPRAC relating to the regulation of the health professions. The Minister of Health and Long-Term Care relies on recommendations from HPRAC as an independent source of evidence-informed advice in the formulation of policy in relation to health professional regulation in Ontario. In providing its advice and preparing its recommendations, HPRAC is independent of the Minister of Health and Long- Term Care, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, the regulated health colleges, regulated health professional and provider associations, and stakeholders who have an interest in issues on which it provides advice.
