§ Mr. Colemanasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what are the restrictions concerning the handing over of pharmaceutical products in pharmacies to minors; and if he will make a statement.
§ Dr. VaughanThere is nothing in law to prevent a pharmacist—or an assistant acting under a pharmacist's supervision—handing over pharmaceutical products to a minor. Whether or not he should do so is a matter for the pharmacist's professional judgment.
