The GPhC is taking steps to improve its handling of FtP cases after a number of concerns were identified. 

The GPhC received 16 whistleblowing disclosures between 1 April 2018 and 31 March 2019, a report reveals.

The GPhC dealt with more Fitness to Practise concerns in 2018-19, though fewer individuals were removed from the register.

PM asked the GPhC to comment on whether staffing levels could be contributing to a spike in FTP concerns

A pharmacist employed by the NPA had engaged in an act of sexual impropriety and then failed to disclose his police caution

Of the 402 pharmacies that were inspected in 2017-18 and judged to be poor or not meeting all standards, 98 per cent have made the necessary improvements, the report says

Why has there been such a dramatic increase in the number of fitness to practise investigations by the GPhC?
