Front Cover Picture

This week’s front cover picture (by Christopher Icha) draws attention to the Office of Fair Trading report on control of entry regulations that was published on 17 January
In a news feature, Jonathan Buisson looks at what the report says and gathers reactions from pharmacists and their representatives (p108). Also in this week’s issue the authors of an article suggest that if need, consumer protection and social justice come before competition, then the OFT may have over-stepped the mark
