The reimbursement price paid to pharmacy contractors for items supplied under the State's drugs schemes is set out in regulation. Commercial arrangements between wholesalers and retailers are not a matter for my Department or the HSE.

In relation to the reimbursement issue raised by the Deputy, I have asked the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy on this matter.
