12. Any medical or surgical practitioner who, pursuant to law, is registered as such and entitled accordingly to certain privileges in practising medicine or surgery, according to his qualifications in any one or more of the provinces of the Dominion of Canada, or in any other British Colony other than Hongkong, shall, upon proof thereof, be entitled to be registered accordingly under this Ordinance. Documentary evidence of his being thus lawfully registered in such other Colony may be submitted to the Colonial Secretary by any such practitioner who wishes to be registered in Hongkong.

If the Colonial Secretary is not satisfied, he shall submit the case to the Governor in Council for decision as to whether he shall or shall not give such certificate, and such decision shall be final.

Any medical or surgical practitioner holding a diploma, licence, or a certificate of any kind concerning his professional qualifications granted to him by any University or by any College or Faculty of Physicians or Surgeons, after and in consequence of his having passed through a course of study and examination as thorough and sufficient as is the minimum course in any like case approved by Her Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council, under section 21 of the Act of the United Kingdom, 21 and 22 Victoria, chapter 90, shall, upon proof that such diploma, licence, or certificate was so granted, be entitled to be registered accordingly under this Ordinance.
