The NHS (Pharmaceutical and Local Pharmaceutical Services) Regulations 2013

The regulations came into effect on 1 April 2013, and replaced the 2012 regulations.  They reflect the new NHS architecture, in which NHS England (the NHS Commissioning Board, NHSCB)  is responsible for maintaining pharmaceutical lists, and the Health and Wellbeing Boards (HWB) are responsible for developing and publishing the Pharmaceutical Needs Assessments, which are used in the determination of routine applications for new pharmacies.
