<p dir="ltr">&#8220;They&#8217;re trying to do their part by using registration as a tool to protect the public, which is great, but people are afraid of losing their jobs,&#8221; Udod said Thursday.</p>
<p dir="ltr">&#8220;That&#8217;s why [nurses] are putting in false registration information, and here we have situations where people have been convicted of a criminal offence decades ago and [are] still being punished, so that will just create even more fear.&#8221;</p>
