have regard to the expressed views of the appropriate authority in respect of the requirements in the Islands of professional employees in the particular profession;
notify the appropriate authority of the details of every work permit applied for, whether granted or not;
not, except in exceptional circumstances, grant a work permit to a person wishing to enter into self employment as a professional employee; and
not grant a work permit to a professional employee unless —
the appropriate authority has satisfied the Board that the applicant has applied for and been granted registration or such other approval, consent or permission as may be required under the relevant law, as a practitioner in his field; and
he is legally and ordinarily resident in the Islands or intends to be so legally and ordinarily resident.
