DR. ABDUL SAMAD versus GOVERNMENT OF BALOCHISTAN THROUGH SECRETARY, HEALTH/CHAIRMAN, BALOCHISTAN CLINICAL LABORATORY REGULA
Articles 18 and 199 Constitutional application The right to enter into any legal profession, trade or profession Under Article 18 of the Constitution, every citizen of Pakistan shall enter into any legal profession or profession and any legal trade or business shall be competent. This right was not an absolute right, but was subject to certain restrictions, if any, as may be suggested by law, was provided by Proviso (a) of Article 18 of the Constitution through a licensing system. The trade was also given the option of organizing the profession, so as to control it as necessary. The prohibition includes a power which, in the Article 18 of the Constitution, included the power to protect, control and restore the fundamental right, subject to such a qualification as was required by law. Could have been suggested by the source. If the Constitution gives the Legislature the power to regulate trade through a licensing system, then the above basic rights must be followed. The power to prohibit matters contained within the Legislature, as trade under this system may only be through licensed persons, corporations, under Article 18 of the Constitution, without qualification, a person may operate a business or trade, but not by profession. That would not make sense. Freedom of entry into any profession or profession without the required qualifications, the rules of medicine, dentistry, law and other professions that include the safety and health of the general public were run in most countries; In order to determine the probability, possibly depending on the nature of the business and the circumstances of the trade, it was clear that the factors varied from trade to trade.
