§ DR. TANNERI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lientenant of Ireland whether he is aware that persons convicted of offences under the Pharmacy Acts can and have placed themselves outside these Acts through their incorporation under the Companies Acts, and whether companies can be registered to do acts for which qualification by education and examination is required by Parliament; and whether the Government will take into account and remedy these grievances complained of by the Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland?
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURThe matter complained of formed the subject, last year, of a correspondence between the Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland and the Select Committee of the House of Lords on the Companies Acts Amendment Bill. The subject appears to be one calling for considera- 664 tion when any amendment of the law is proposed affecting Great Britain and Ireland as a whole.
§ DR. TANNERWhen may we expect some outcome?
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURI am unable to say.
