Government approval was given on 2nd May 2006 to the draft heads and general scheme of the first Pharmacy Bill and these have now been forwarded to the Parliamentary Counsel's office for priority drafting. I have, with Government approval, circulated a copy of this document to the opposition spokespersons on Health. I have also arranged for my officials to provide a copy to the Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland and the Irish Pharmaceutical Union.
