25 August 2020 - The Department published six versions of the agenda and still could not get it right.

The Department prepared and published six agendas for the July 2020 PBAC meeting. The version that currently appears on the PBS website is labelled version 6. One cannot access the previous five versions from the PBS website. We have electronic copies of versions 1, 2 & 4.

The sixth version fails to note the late minor submission from GSK for paracetamol (Panadol) suppositories. This submissions was recommended - see the recommendations from the July meeting for more details.

The sixth version also fails to note the withdrawal of the submission from Novartis for sacubitril with valsartan (Entresto). Revised agendas from previous PBAC meetings have made note of withdrawn submissions.
