Statutory Committee inquiries

The Statutory Committee will meet at the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, 1 Lambeth High Street, London SE1, on Tuesday 18 June 2002 at 10am to hear (1) an inquiry into a complaint by the Council of the Society against a pharmacist which alleges that practising as a pharmacist after removal from the Register of Pharmaceutical Chemists amounts to misconduct. The committee will also hear (2) an inquiry into a complaint by the Council of the Society against a pharmacist which includes allegations that the poor standards at the pharmacy, the presence on the dispensary shelves of date-expired stock and loose strips of tablets and capsules, some of which showed no batch numbers or expiry dates despite advice from the Society over a lengthy period, and failure to maintain proper records of private prescriptions dispensed from the pharmacy amounts to misconduct.

The committee will further meet on Wednesday 19 June 2002 at 10am to hear (3) an inquiry into a complaint by the Council of the Society against a pharmacist which includes allegations that dispensing errors and the pharmacist's failure to ensure safe and accurate dispensing and checking practices amounts to misconduct.
