HC Deb 27 April 1994 vol 242 c201W
Sir Gerard Vaughan

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what is her policy in respect of printing the retail price recommended by the manufacturer on all packs of prescription and over-the-counter medicines.

Dr. Mawhinney

We have no plans to show the price of national health service prescription medicines on the label. The sale of over the counter medicines is governed by retail price maintenance and is a matter for the suppliers.
