The Health Minister is being accused of ignoring pleas for more funding from Ireland's pharmacies.

The Irish Pharmacy Union says they've endured a 15 year pay freeze, with many now on the brink of closure.

Minister Stephen Donnelly is obliged to review the funding model by the end of June, but the IPU says there's been zero engagement to date.

Interim Secretary General Derek Reilly says they're losing faith in the minister.
