YPG to call for SGM on modernisation

The Young Pharmacists Group annual general meeting heard that the group would be writing to the Royal Pharmaceutical Society soon asking for a date for a special general meeting to discuss the Society's modernisation programme. If the Society does not call one, the YPG will seek the support of individuals in other pharmacy bodies to call one themselves.

The Society's membership needs to have an adequate say, said Noel Wicks, YPG chairman, and to discuss other options to the one put forward by the Society's Modernisation Group. The YPG has also written to the chief pharmaceutical officer at the Department of Health, Dr Jim Smith, requesting a meeting to discuss the YPG's concerns.
