On 1 September 2008, the Singapore Pharmacy Board was reconstituted as a statutory board under Ministry of Health and renamed as Singapore Pharmacy Council (SPC) in accordance with the new Pharmacists Registration Act 2007.

The Council maintains the list of persons legally qualified to practise pharmacy in Singapore (Register of Pharmacist) and also governs and regulates the professional conduct and ethics of registered pharmacists. 

In addition, SPC administers the compulsory continuing professional education (CPE) framework to ensure that pharmacists are current in pharmaceutical knowledge and skills to maintain the highest standards of professional competence and practice.
