James McGrath Queensland, Liberal National Party, Assistant Minister to the Prime Minister
12:20 pm
The government recognises the pivotal role of the community pharmacy sector in delivering medicines to Australian patients. The government's compact with the Pharmacy Guild in May last year, which included a continuation of the location rules, secures the support of community pharmacy in making further PBS reforms. I should indicate that the government is not supporting the amendment.
The CHAIR: The question is that schedule 5, part 1, stand as printed.
