Dear Owen and Roger,

The 바카라 사이트바카라 사이트™s response to the ACMD바카라 사이트™s advice on NHS England proposals to permit the electronic prescribing of Schedule 2 and 3 controlled drugs.

I am grateful to the ACMD for their advice on electronic prescribing. I have set out the recommendations and the 바카라 사이트바카라 사이트™s response below:

Recommendation 1:

The ACMD recommends to the Home Office that the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 are amended to allow electronic prescribing of Schedule 2 and 3 Controlled Drugs within secondary care and the Health & Justice System.

바카라 사이트 response

The 바카라 사이트 accepts the recommendation that the electronic prescribing of Schedule 2 and 3 Controlled Drugs within secondary care and the Health & Justice System should be allowed, subject to further consideration with the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) of whether amending the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 is the most appropriate legislative mechanism.

Recommendation 2

The ACMD recommends NHS England evaluate the impact of the proposed changes to the Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001 to allow electronic prescribing of Schedule 2 and 3 Controlled Drugs within secondary care and the Health & Justice System.

This recommendation is led by NHS England and DHSC, who have confirmed they will conduct an evaluation of the impact of the proposed changes once implemented.

Thank you again for your advice.

Yours sincerely,

Rt Hon Chris Philp MP

Minister of State for Crime, Policing and Fire
