House debates National Health Amendment (Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme) Bill 2007

Consideration of Senate Message

Thursday, 21 June 2007 House of Representatives

Christopher Pyne

Christopher Pyne Sturt, Liberal Party, Minister for Ageing

11:01 am

I do not propose to get into a debate about this. Obviously, I am not the minister responsible for the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme. My understanding is that the minor parties’ amendment is being disagreed to by the government, but we are enacting our own amendment this morning which is virtually in the same detail as the Senate amendment, which I understand has been agreed to by the opposition and the government. So we are disagreeing to their Senate amendment (3) but substituting our own government amendment.
