Formerly the New Brunswick Pharmaceutical Society, oversight was established by an Act of the Legislature of New Brunswick in 1884. This Act, which addresses the College’s role and responsibilities, was last updated in July, 2014 and included a name change to the current New Brunswick College of Pharmacists.
