HC Deb 24 June 2002 vol 387 cc736-7W
John Mann

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans he has to allow hospital pharmacies to fulfil prescriptions from GPs. [62353]

Mr. Lammy

Hospital pharmacies could be providers of local pharmaceutical services under pilot schemes to be set up under the Health and Social Care Act 2001 and, as such, would be able to dispense prescriptions written by general practitioners.
