Pharmacy Services
Dail Éireann — 2023-06-01
============================================================

Richard Bruton (FG), Dublin Bay North

From previous replies, I think the Minister indicated a working group in place during Covid had been repurposed to look at taking advantage of low-hanging fruit in a highly-qualified segment of the population that has community confidence. The HSE is approaching this by looking at one column after another, which is going to be very slow and it will be difficult to make progress. Can the Minister not see his way to broadening the scope of the work a pharmacist can take on so it is much wider than a case-by-case basis?
