No, the laws that prevent the public from advertising themselves as
accredited surgeons unless under the GMC rules.

It is arguable (but thoroughly off topic  :o)  that if members of the
public want to cut each other up, the should be allowed to -- the GMC
is there to ensure that patients give *informed consent* to the
*accredited* person-with-a-scalpel...   :o)

...IMHO, of course...

What, you mean like laws that prevent the public from performing
surgery
on one another, unless they are allowed to under the Govt supervised
"General Medical Council" rules?
