HC Deb 02 April 1913 vol 51 c399W
Mr. CHARLES BATHURST

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that the council of the Pharmaceutical Society has not up to the present taken any steps to make by-laws under Section 4 (b) of the Poisons and Pharmacy Act, 1908, providing for the registration as pharmaceutical chemists or chemists and druggists under the Pharmacy Acts, 1852 and 1868, of, among others, certified assistants to apothecaries under the Apothecaries Act, 1815; and whether he will take any and, if any, what steps to induce the council to pass such by-laws without further loss of time?

Mr. McKENNA

I have nothing to add to the reply I gave to a similar question by the hon. Member for Salisbury on 6th February last, except to say that the matter is receiving the continuous and careful attention of the Privy Council Office.
