"Discipline" in The Architects Act 1997 (as Amended)

The primary meaning of "discipline" traditionally refers to education, with the meaning of a branch of knowledge (as: "in what discipline is his doctorate?"; "teachers should be well trained in their subject"; "anthropology is the study of ...).

In the Architects Act 1997 (as amended) education is referred to in Part II which is headed "Registration etc.", not in Part III which is headed "Discipline". References in Part II are:

"educational establishments" in section 4A(2)(c)(i);
"education and training " in section 6(2A);
"educational bodies" in section 6(3)(b);
"architectural education" in section 6A.
"The Education Fund" is mentioned in SCHEDULE 2 (Section 27, Transitional Provisions).

In Part III of the Architects Act 1997 "Discipline" is being used in one of the secondary meanings, such as:

punish in order to gain control or enforce obedience: "The teacher disciplined the pupils rather frequently";
the act of punishing: "The offenders deserved the harsh discipline they received"

Famous quotes containing the words discipline, architects and/or act:

    I think of discipline as the continual everyday process of helping a child learn self-discipline.
    Fred Rogers (20th century)

    Perchance the time will come when every house even will have not only its sleeping-rooms, and dining-room, and talking-room or parlor, but its thinking-room also, and the architects will put it into their plans. Let it be furnished and ornamented with whatever conduces to serious and creative thought. I should not object to the holy water, or any other simple symbol, if it were consecrated by the imagination of the worshipers.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    New York has never learnt the art of growing old by playing on all its pasts. Its present invents itself, from hour to hour, in the act of throwing away its previous accomplishments and challenging the future. A city composed of paroxysmal places in monumental reliefs.
    Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)
