Council has the tough duty of determining the best way forward for the pharmacy profession. During its meetings it is tasked with resolving a multitude of issues, many of them crucial to the provision of good, quality pharmaceutical service to the nation. e-Pharmaciae looks at some of the issues discussed and decisions taken during the July 2014 meeting.

Online applications for tutor approval, internship, community service pharmacists, and pharmacists upon completion of CSP are mandatory from 2015.
