 From spring 2006, nurses and chemists are to be allowed to prescribe any
medicine except controlled drugs such as diamorphine.

Patricia Hewitt said: "Extending prescribing responsibilities is an
important part of our commitment to modernise the NHS".

Is it not the destruction of the medical profession and a threat to
thousands of people ?

No, of course not. It's taking on a vested interest of the well-off -
nurses are well able to prescribe most medicines.

 The British Medical Association called the changes "irresponsible and
dangerous".

That's roughly what they said about the NHS.

Take care
