Medical registration under provincial legislation applied only in parts of New Zealand between 1850 and 1867. A total of 199 practitioners who were registered under that legislation has been traced. Their subsequent fate is known in most cases. At least 120 died in New Zealand and 36 known deaths occurred overseas. Qualifications were predominantly English, with Scottish the next largest group, reflecting British practice at the time. Medical registration for the Colony of New Zealand began in 1868, in terms of the Medical Practitioners Act 1867 passed by the General Assembly of the colony. Before that, however, there was provincial legislation in the southern parts of the country. That provincial legislation is not generally highly regarded, but there are records of 199 people who were registered in terms of the provincial legislation and these records are known to be incomplete.

A hospital board has an obligation to provide services in the community but it is essential that those extramural services act in collaboration with and not in competition with all other services in the community. In particular, it is essential that we maintain the primacy of general practice and in return the general practitioner must accept full responsibility for the care of his patients in their homes, rehabilitation and encouraging the maximum possible independence on the part of the patients and their families must be the constant theme of the extramural services.
