Marie Sherlock (Dublin Central, Labour)

I put it to the Minister that 1 June is 19 days away. The majority of pharmacists I have spoken to - and have spoken to many - tell me they are not signing up to the free HRT scheme. I understand that no communication has been made to the pharmacists about the software. It is my understanding that the providers of the software have not been given any information by the Department about adding free HRT to the system. Most pharmacists are opposed and no IT system is in place. What actions has the Minister undertaken to ensure the women of this country can access free HRT from 1 June?
