The Pharmacy Order 2010 gives the Council powers to make orders and rules in relevant areas, subject to approval by the Privy Council. These cover more detailed aspects of our functions.
There have been some changes to our legislation since it was first made, therefore legislation included here is ‘consolidated’ – where the original Order or Rule has been amended by a subsequent Statutory Instrument, the text has been changed accordingly. The consolidated versions are not official text; users should consult an official version of the legislation for the purpose of interpreting and applying the law.
