I can't recall the newspaper source but there was an article recently about a pregnant woman who claimed a free prescription only to be fined by the NBSA. Pregnant women are allowed free prescriptions.
Unfortunately the mid-wife had not registered the correct documents so the pregnant woman wasn't recorded as being pregnant.
The NBSA refuses to budge as they cannot backdate the registration - catch 22 and the poor woman has to pay the fine. An injustice!
