Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

A chemist who has undertaken to provide supplemental services within the meaning of regulation 16 shall, on request, make available to the FHSA all records kept in accordance with regulation 16(2)(b).

(2)

The FHSA shall make payments, calculated in the manner provided by the Drug Tariff (subject to any deduction required to be made by regulations made under section 77 of the Act) to chemists in respect of drugs and appliances, containers, medicines measures and dispensing fees.

(3)

Where a chemist so requires, the FHSA shall afford him reasonable facilities for examining all or any of the forms on which the drugs or appliances provided by him were ordered, together with particulars of the amounts calculated to be payable in respect of such drugs and appliances and the FHSA shall take into consideration any objections made by the chemist in relation to those amounts.

(4)

Where so required by the Local Pharmaceutical Committee or any organisation which is, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, representative of the general body of chemists, the FHSA shall give the Local Pharmaceutical Committee or the organisation in question similar facilities for examining such forms and particulars relating to all or any of the chemists which it represents.
