Nearly half want pharmacists to stay in pharmacies

摘要

Nearly half the people and organisations that commented on the Governments plans to allow pharmacists to leave pharmacy premises while they are open for business were against the proposal. The Department of Health's summary of responses to the consultation on the responsible pharmacist regulations records the fact that 41 per cent of the 311 responses opposed the plan. A further 10 per cent said that they could not comment on the plans until proposals were published on how requirements for the supervision of dispensing and medicine sales might change (this is to be the subject of a separate consultation later this year).
