Committee on Drugs Use

Decriminalisation, Depenalisation, Diversion and Legalisation of Drugs: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. Tom Murray:

As colleagues outlined, some pharmacists are comfortable with certain levels of professional practice while others may not have had the demand for the service and therefore do not have experience. I do not think that means they are objectively against it, but that they need that education, training and support to offer the service.
