I'm all for it by the way

I think it's good but I'm a little worried over where the legislation leaves us pharmacists.

On the one hand the RPSGB states that we are responsible for all Rxs that go out on our shift whether we had anything to do with their dispensing or not and on the other they say that ACTs can take over the final checks.

To me it seems to be another case of legislation being brought in badly on the whim of the minister in charge rather than a coordination of pharmaceutical resources.

I do think ACTs are the way forward I'm just a little worried that my certificate may rest on someone else's sholders.
