24 May 2017 - It is my pleasure to update you on the agreement the Government has reached with the Pharmacy Guild as part of the 2017-18 Budget.
This follows on from my address at the Australian Professional Pharmacy Conference in March where I provided an overview of my broad vision for health and the Long Term National Health Plan.
The agreement is the culmination of open and constructive negotiations with the Pharmacy Guild and I would like to thank your President, George Tambassis, for working collaboratively with me to develop and finalise the agreement.
