Funded Activity Summary

The Impact of International Trade Agreements on the Regulation and Provision of Medicines in Australia. This Project will provide policy makers and the community with previously unavailable detailed information and regulatory options (through scholarly publications, reports to government agencies and a publicly accessible website) concerning the effects of Australia's international trade commitments on access to medicines. It will develop a strategic modelling system and a continuing research group with unique expertise for evaluating the health impacts of future trade negotiations by Australia and other nations. The Project particularly benefits aged and poor Australians who are more reliant on medicines for health and for whom such costs represent a significant component of domestic expenditure.
