Action to be Taken Against Errant Psychologists Under Planned Rules

Inter-agency committee to seek feedback on framework, set to complete work by 2026

- Lee Li Ying

Errant psychologists flouting rules and those who masquerade as registered psychologists will be taken to task under a new registration framework to boost the standards of mental health professionals.

An inter-agency committee, which will conduct consultations on the framework later in 2025, is set to complete its work by 2026. It is currently defining requirements for registration.

Senior Minister of State for Health Janil Puthucheary gave these updates on March 29, during an inaugural symposium held by the Singapore Psychological Society (SPS) at YWCA Fort Canning.

During its budget debate in March, the Ministry of Health announced that Singapore will be working towards registering psychologists, amid rising concerns over client safety in an unregulated sector.
