I should have paid more attention to the Minister's final summing up, but am I correct in understanding that the use of INNs in prescribing is being considered? Will primary legislation will be required if a decision is made to include INNs?

With regard to what the Minister of State said regarding discretion and reasoned opinion, there are always consequences when these are included in legislation, but we have this all the time. We allow discretion and reasoned opinion to many people in legislation and my amendment does no more and no less.
