In determining the public interest, the board shall consider the following factors:
(1) Maintenance of effective controls against diversion of controlled substances into other than legitimate medical, scientific or industrial channels;
(2) compliance with applicable state and local law;
(3) any conviction of the applicant under any federal and state laws relating to any controlled substance;
(4) past experience in the manufacture, dispensing or distribution of controlled substances and the existence in the applicant's establishment of effective controls against diversion;
(5) furnishing by the applicant of false or fraudulent material in any application filed under this act;
(6) suspension or revocation of the applicant's federal registration to manufacture, distribute or dispense controlled substances as authorized by federal law; and
(7) any other factors relevant to and consistent with the public health and safety.
(b) Registration under subsection (a) does not entitle a registrant to manufacture and distribute controlled substances in schedule I or II other than those specified in the registration.
(c) Practitioners shall be registered to dispense any controlled substances or to conduct research with controlled substances in schedules II through V if they are authorized to prescribe or to conduct research under the laws of this state.
(d) Pharmacists shall be registered to dispense schedule I designated prescription substances and controlled substances in schedules II through V if none of the grounds for revocation, suspension or refusal to renew a registration exist at the time of application.
