Health Minister, Simon Hamilton MLA says prescription charges will NOT be reintroduced during his time as Minister

21/1/2016

We were delighted to hear the Health Minister announce that  prescription charges would not be making a return in Northern Ireland  in the short term, due to a "lack of consensus" on the issue.   Read the BBC news piece on this here.  

This follows  a very active and high profile local campaign led by the British Heart Foundation NI and MS Society NI on behalf of the Prescription Charges Coalition and Long-Term Medical Conditions Alliance NI.  

The Keep Us Well campaign report, which outlines the findings of a survey of 850 people with long-term conditions in Northern Ireland, makes a powerful case for  keeping prescriptions free for people with long-term conditions.
