Pharmacy Bill 2007: Committee and Remaining Stages
1:00 pm
Brendan Ryan (Labour)
Wearing the hat of something of an academic, I point out that the days of boring old lecturers standing in front of even more bored students should be ending. There is a great deal of learning by doing and problem-based learning which seems, for a profession such as pharmacy or many other professions, an ideal and better way of learning. If we want to try new ways, we should not let legislation stand in the way of it. If that is what this provision means, I would welcome it.
