New annual report on fitness-to-practise matters

摘要

An annual report devoted to the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's fitness-to-practise (FTP) activities is to be published for the first time later in the year, the Society's President, Hemant Patel, told the annual general meeting on 21 May. It is being produced to comply with new legislation for healthcare regulators. Commenting on the absence of FTP statistics in the annual review, John Murphy (Nottingham), who is director of the Pharmacists' Defence Association, said that he understood that more than 1,300 pharmacists had either been through the regulatory processes or were still in the pipeline in 2007.
