§ Rev. Martin Smythasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what steps he takes to ensure that medicines for the use of adults are not included on children's presciption forms to avoid incurring the relevant prescription charges.
§ Mr. Kenneth ClarkeParagraph 36 of the terms of service for doctors requires a doctor to use a separate prescription form for each patient except where a doctor is prescribing in bulk for a school or institution. If a suspected breach of the terms of service were brought to the attention of the relevant family practitioner committee a doctor would be liable to proceedings under the service committee and tribunal regulations.
