CONSIGLIO NAZIONALE ORDINE DEGLI PSICOLOGI

The National Council of the Order of Psychologists was established by Law No. 56 of 1989. It is composed of the presidents of the Regional Councils, of the Autonomous Provinces of Trento and Bolzano, and of a representative of Section B of the Register. Its role is to represent the profession of psychologist at the national and international levels, to draft and update the Code of Ethics—binding on all registered members—and to submit it for approval by referendum. It oversees compliance with laws and regulations concerning the profession in matters of national relevance, and appoints representatives of the Order to national-level bodies and commissions.
