More resources will follow later this spring. In addition, as part of the world class commissioning programme, the Department plans to publish further information for PCTs on how to commission pharmaceutical services.
The Department first advised primary care trusts to undertake pharmaceutical needs assessments in 2004-05. However, our White Paper stated that while many PCTs have reviewed these assessments or plan to do so, not all PCTs had yet considered the need to either update or review their assessments. The Health Bill 2009 introduced on 15 January 2009 contains proposals to require primary care trusts to assess pharmaceutical needs in their area and to publish a statement of those needs. Subject to parliamentary approval, new regulations, to be derived from powers in the Bill, will set out the requirements for how and when these assessments should be carried out.
