of hospital pharmacy, and will be joined by the Association of Independent
Multiple Pharmacies, Association of Pharmacy Technicians UK, Company
Chemists Association, National Pharmacy Association, Pharmaceutical Services
Negotiating Committee, Primary Care Pharmacists Association, and the
Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain.
