There are also questions around oral authorisation. Of course, that will be practical in some cases, but how do we make sure that it is properly accounted for and that there is proper record keeping and accountability, if we need to look back at a particular case, prescription or interaction? How do we make sure that there is that accountability to safeguard the safety of patients? The Minister said that the SI would pay due regard to patient safety, but it is important that we have that accountability on oral authorisation in particular.
