To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S4W-10963 by Alex Neil on 29 November 2012, what steps the Patient Safety Programme is taking to examine any adverse effects of the (a) off licence and (b) unlicensed use of prescription medicines by the NHS. As stated in my answer to question S4W-10963, medicine safety issues are subject matters of the Human Medicines Regulations 2012 and are currently reserved issues.
