To continue the remarks that I commenced last night—the matters contemplated by the legislation before the Senate have been considered since 2017 by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia. The board and the chief nursing and midwifery officers have conducted extensive research and consultation on nurse prescribing models. The NMBA developed the standard for designated registered nurse prescribers through multiple rounds of public consultation.
