The Pharmacy Workforce Review (PWR) was published by the Department of Health (DoH) in November 2020, this is available on the Department website. The review led to a commitment to bring Pharmacy Technicians in Northern Ireland under statutory regulation by the Pharmaceutical Society of Northern Ireland.
A Pharmacy Technician Regulation and Development Oversight Board has been established to take forward this work. Updates on progress can be found in quarterly newsletters.
