Column 189
Metropolitan police in each inner and outer London magistrates court in the latest month for which the information is available ; what was the number for the same month one year ago ; and what assessment he has made of the reasons for the change.The Attorney-General : The information is not available in the form requested.

HEALTH
Drugs
Mr. Conway : To ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) if she will give, by specialism, the membership of the committee considering the list of drugs purchasable over the counter ;
(2) if a dermatologist will be invited to give evidence on the application of dermatological drugs to be considered by the committee on drugs purchasable over the counter ; and if she will make a statement.
Dr. Mawhinney : The membership of the Committee on Safety of Medicines is given in the table. In accordance with the requirements of the Medicines Act 1968, we seek and take account of the Committee on Safety of Medicines' advice before deciding whether it is safe for a prescription- only medicine to be reclassified so that it may be supplied over the counter. If a dermatological medicine currently restricted to supply on prescription only were to be proposed for reclassification to allow it to be supplied over the counter, the Committee on Safety of Medicines' advice would be sought. It would be open to the Committee to obtain any additional specialist advice it considered necessary.
