§ 67. Sir M. Stoddart-Scottasked the Minister of Health what is his present policy with regard to the compulsory labelling of all drugs, unless otherwise ordered by the prescriber; and whether he is aware that such action would in no way restrict doctors' freedom of prescribing.
§ Mr. BarberThe present practice is for pharmacists to put on the label only what the prescriber instructs. The legal provisions regarding labelling of drugs are now being reviewed in connection with new comprehensive legislation concerning medicines.
