NDER () (): It's a real pleasure to speak after my friend the member for Dunkley. Of course, Labor does support this bill, and we note its importance as it seeks to integrate the recently agreed medicines agreement between the Commonwealth and the pharmaceutical industry, in particular Medicines Australia and the Generic and Biosimilar Medicines Association.
I started my career as a medical student in 1972, so next year it will be half a century, which doesn't seem so long ago to me but may seem a long time ago to others.
