PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
INDEPENDENT PRESCRIBING (13 February 2006)

Motion Details

That this House welcomes the Government's recent announcement on independent prescribing powers for pharmacists and nurses; recognises that pharmacy and nursing professionals will have to undergo significant training to be granted these extended powers and will operate within an agreed range of competencies; notes that this new way of working will relieve pressure on general practitioners and vastly improve the speed at which patients will be able to access treatment and medicines; and urges the Government to ensure that these proposals are implemented in full through regulations as soon as possible.
