The Price of Medication

The idea

The governments of England, Scotland and Wales and Northern Ireland should have parity in what they charge for drugs, and whether they supply them or not on the NHS.

Why is it important?

I think it is unfair and slightly confusing that some drugs (for example those for cancer treatment) are available for free in Wales and Scotland, but you have to pay for them in England.  The devolved governments should have some parity, as we are all citizens of the United Kingdom, but these laws segregate us.
