Pharmacy Bill 2007: Committee and Remaining Stages
1:00 pm
Mary Harney (Dublin Mid West, Progressive Democrats)
The codes will not be voluntary. Section 12 outlines the manner in which codes of conduct will be given effect. I intend to ensure, subject to the agreement of the Competition Authority, that a code of conduct will not be used in a restrictive way, for example, as a barrier to entry. The Senator's proposal has already been covered in the Bill.
