The All-Party Parliamentary Group on Pharmacy aims to 'raise awareness of the profession of pharmacy and to promote pharmacists’ current and potential contribution to the health of the nation.'[1]
In 2006 it was criticised by the Times for not adequately disclosing support from lobbying or PR firms, which 'list only the name of a lobbyist or public affairs consultant, and do not specify an ultimate client. This would appear to be a clear breach of parliamentary 1985 rules that state: “Where a public relations agency provides the assistance, the ultimate client should be named”.[2]
The September 2010 UK House of Commons register of All-Party Groups discloses that Luther Pendragon act as the group’s secretariat on behalf of the Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee, the National Pharmacy Association, the Company Chemists’ Association and the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain. [3]
As of July 2015 Luther Pendragon was still named as the group's secretariat.
Contents
Work and activities
The group looks at issues of current interest and significance for pharmacy, patients and the NHS. It holds meetings and investigations and invites expert speakers to explain their views and help shape the debate.
APPG progress in pharmacy inquiry
The group says it is currently undertaking an inquiry into where further progress may be made in the field of pharmacy. 'The hope is to help pharmacy realise its full potential in the provision of patient care and NHS services in an evolved healthcare landscape'.
The inquiry, as decided by chairman Sir Kevin Barron MP, will be based on roundtable discussions, and is strictly non-adversarial.
It wil look into issues concerning the new commissioning environment, contractual and funding arrangements, education, skills and training on top of patient and public awareness. [4]
