No regrets about RPSGB split

The Royal Pharmaceutical Society is revelling in its role as a professional body now that it has thrown off the “straitjacket of regulation”, president Ash Soni (pictured) said in his 2015 conference address.

Since the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) fully took over all regulatory functions five years ago, the RPS has enjoyed the freedom of professionalism, said Mr Soni, adding: “The RPS is an organisation that looks to create dreams and remove nightmares.” 

Of particular importance in terms of the latter is the ongoing work to decriminalise dispensing errors, he stated, calling on the chief pharmacists of the four UK home countries – all of whom attended the conference – to make this a reality for what is the third biggest healthcare profession.
