Rejected petition Perscription charges

More details

I want the the goverment to review the change in the perscription system that has changed from two months to one month as this adds a huge cost to people like me who are on a low wage but are expected to pay what would be £37.00 a month for myself if scotland can have free persciptions then why should we have to pay for it the goverment should debate this issue and return to the old system
