The National Assembly for Wales’s Health and Social Care Committee reported on its inquiry on the contribution of community pharmacy to health services in May 2012. The focus of the inquiry was to examine how effective the 2005 Community Pharmacy contract has been in developing the contribution of community pharmacy to health and wellbeing services in Wales.

At the time of the report’s publication, the Committee noted its intention to return to the subject during this Assembly term in order to follow-up on its initial conclusions and recommendations. This follow-up inquiry will be used to consider how effective the Welsh Government has been in addressing the issues identified by the Committee in its report, with a specific focus on the implementation of the Committee’s recommendations.
