This section has no associated Explanatory Memorandum

98.—(1) If an NHS chemist (C) is suspended from a pharmaceutical list, [F1NHS England] must make payments to C, in accordance with the determination that is to be made by the Secretary of State under this paragraph in relation to such payments.

(2) A determination under paragraph (1) may be amended from time to time by a further determination under that paragraph.

(4) A determination under paragraph (1) must be published in the Drug Tariff.

(5) A determination under paragraph (1) may include provision that payments in accordance with the determination are not to exceed a specified amount in a specified period.

(6) If a payment has been made pursuant to a determination under paragraph (1) to C when it was not due, it must (except to the extent that the Secretary of State, on the application of [F1NHS England], directs otherwise) draw the overpayment to the attention of C, and—

(a)where C admits the overpayment; or

(b)if C does not admit there has been an overpayment, where the final outcome of an investigation or appeal is that there has been an overpayment,

the amount overpaid shall be recoverable by deduction from other remuneration payable to C in respect of pharmaceutical services (for example, from subsequent payments under the determination or from payments for pharmaceutical services where C resumes the provision of pharmaceutical services) or as a civil debt.

(7) C may appeal to the Secretary of State against the following decisions by [F1NHS England]

(a)a refusal to make payments to C under the determination under paragraph (1);

provided that C notifies the Secretary of State with a valid notice of appeal within 30 days of the date on which C was notified of the decision that is being appealed.

(8) A notice under paragraph (7) is valid only if it includes a concise and reasoned statement of the grounds of appeal.

(9) Schedule 3 has effect in relation to appeals to the Secretary of State under paragraph (7) (as it does in relation to appeals against decisions under Parts 2 to 5, 7, 8 to 10 and Schedule 2).
