HC Deb 05 November 1981 vol 12 c4W
Mr. Robert Atkins

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether the present arrangements for reimbursing the cost of drugs used by chemists contracted to the National Health Service are such that all contractors are subject to the same conversions when the amounts to be reimbursed are calculated.

Dr. Vaughan

Yes. There has recently been some misunderstanding over this. The position is that all pharmacists in contract with the National Health Service are reimbursed on the same basis.
