New clause 74 would ensure that employees were not forgotten when a provider failed. It would protect wages and essential employment rights and help staff transfer to a replacement provider where possible. Amendment 58 would require the Government and ICBs to support new independent pharmacies to open after a large-scale closure and help them secure medicines and supplies quickly. Amendment 59 would mean that funding allocations would reflect rurality, population age, travel costs, recruitment difficulties, economies of scale and unmet need.
