A total of 152 proprietors of pharmaceutical premises from across Sierra Leone’s five regions appeared before the Disciplinary Committee of the Pharmacy Board of Sierra Leone (PBSL) on November 20th, 21st, 27th and 28th, 2024.
The hearings, held in Freetown, Bo and Makeni, were chaired by Thomas Joe Freeman Esq., a representative of the Attorney General and the Chairman of the Committee. He was supported by the Registrar of the PBSL and the Head of the Enforcement and Narcotic Department.
During the proceedings, fines were imposed on defaulters based on the specific violations they committed. Strict warnings were issued to professionals who failed to attend the hearings, with the Chairman emphasizing that a third offense would result in the revocation of their licenses.
Dr. James P. Komeh, the PBSL Registrar, directed officers in charge of the Board’s provincial branches to await a decision from the Board Members concerning the premises of proprietors who failed to respond to the committee’s invitation.
