A group of chemists in Listowel have come together to try and block the planned development of a pharmacy unit at the north Kerry town’s primary care centre.

The Listowel Pharmacists Group has appealed the recent decision of Kerry County Council to grant permission to allow the Listowel Primary Care Centre to open a pharmacy/dispensary unit on its premises.
