Prescription Charges (EDM1375)

Prescription Charges

EDM number 1375 in 1992-93, proposed by Dawn Primarolo on 10/02/1993.

That this House condemns any increase in prescription charges; believes that any further increase will be prohibitive to many on low incomes who will not be able to afford the drugs they need and amounts to a tax on the sick; notes that when this Government came to power prescriptions cost 20 pence and have been increased 15 times and are now 2,000 per cent. higher; and calls on the Government to reduce the charges made for prescriptions and to extend the qualification criteria for exemption from charge.

This motion has been signed by a total of 109 MPs.
