Following the High Court judgment concerning payments made to community pharmacists in September this year, the HSE have reinstated the previous level of payment to pharmacists from October 2008 onwards. Ms Justice Finlay Geoghegan has not yet ruled on the amount of arrears payable and possible damages arising from the judgment but indicated on 5th of December that she may do so before Christmas. Until this ruling is given I am not in a position to determine the full financial implications of the judgment.
