91.—(1) The NHSCB is appointed by the Secretary of State as a determining authority in relation to the following remuneration to be paid to NHS chemists for providing pharmaceutical services—
(a)the remuneration listed in Schedule 8 (which has effect); and
(b)remuneration in respect of advanced services.
(2) Before making determinations as provided for by paragraph (1), the NHSCB must consult—
(a)the Secretary of State in such manner as the Secretary of State may reasonably request; and
(b)a body appearing to it to be representative of persons to whose remuneration the determination would relate.
(3) In making determinations as provided for by paragraph (1), the NHSCB must—
(a)co-operate with the Secretary of State over seeking to ensure that resource use in respect of pharmaceutical remuneration is compatible with any objectives agreed between the Secretary of State and the NHSCB in respect of the total resource to be available for pharmaceutical remuneration;
(b)ensure that those determinations are compatible with the Secretary of State's arrangements for the claiming and making of payments, and making deductions from payments, that are included in the Drug Tariff (which may relate to pharmaceutical remuneration determined by the NHSCB as well as to pharmaceutical remuneration determined by the Secretary of State);
(c)ensure that those determinations are signed by a member of the senior management of the NHSCB, and for these purposes a person is a member of the senior management of the NHSCB if that person plays a significant role in—
(i)the making of decisions about how the whole or a substantial part of its activities are to be managed or organised, or
(ii)the actual managing or organising of the whole or a substantial part of those activities; and
(d)act in a manner that ensures that any amendments which, as a consequence, need to be made to the Drug Tariff, are made in a manner that is compatible with the Secretary of State's arrangements for the publication of the Drug Tariff (or the arrangements of a person publishing the Drug Tariff on the Secretary of State's behalf).
(4) The Secretary of State must, before making a determination which could by virtue of paragraph (1) be made by the NHSCB, notify the NHSCB of the Secretary of State's intention to make the determination.
(5) Before determining the remuneration payable by it in respect of an enhanced service, the NHSCB must consult any Local Pharmaceutical Committee for the area in which the service is to be provided.
(6) Where the NHSCB makes a determination of the remuneration payable in respect of an enhanced service, it must publish the determination in such manner as it thinks appropriate for bringing it to the attention of persons included in the relevant pharmaceutical lists.
(7) The arrangements for claiming and paying any remuneration in respect of an enhanced service thus determined must allow for the making for any deduction that may or must be made from that remuneration by virtue of any provision of, or made under, the 2006 Act (for example, a deduction that may or must be made by virtue of regulations 70 to 72).
