I thank the cabinet secretary for his reply, although I point out that it was the Minister for Public Health who answered on 6 December, not him.I have written to the Minister for Public Health about a pharmacy application in Whitlawburn in my constituency, which has gone to the health board, has been referred to the national appeal panel and has gone back to the health board, where the latest hearing has been postponed. I have real concerns about the openness, fairness and transparency of those hearings, so I have written to the Minister for Public Health requesting a meeting.
