129 Access to register (1) The register must be open for inspection by the public at reasonable times. (2) However, information that is not required to be included in the register under section 124 (Contents of register—practitioners) or section 125 (Contents of register—premises) need not be available to the public. (3) Also, the board need not allow public inspection of a condition on the registration of a veterinary practitioner if— (a) the condition contains information about someone other than the veterinary practitioner that the board is satisfied is, or may be, confidential; or
(b) in the board’s opinion, the benefit to the public of knowing the condition is outweighed by the personal or prejudicial nature of the condition. (4) The board may, if asked, give someone a copy of, or extract from, the register.
