Major step towards cutting maximum medicine cost to $25

28 July 2025 03:30 | News

Australians will pay more than 25 dollars for drugs selected for more than 20 years under an offer to be brought before the parliament.

After reducing the maximum price of PBS prescriptions from $ 42.50 to $ 30, the Pharmaceutical Benefits Program (PBS) introduced by the Albanian government within three years will be the second cover.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, “the size of your bank balance should not determine the quality of your health service,” he said.

“My government will continue to provide relief of life for all Australians.”

PBS drugs will be limited to $ 7,70 for retirees and credit card holders by 2030.

The introduction of the bill is largely a formality, Labour’s 150 -seat House of Representatives with the large 94 -seat majority through the lower house.

The promise of election is the next priority of the Albanian Government after the child care safety and heCs have introduced the legislation of debt reduction.

Federal Emek talks about plans to strengthen the PBS because of concerns that the Plan will be targeted as a bargaining chip in US commercial negotiations to prevent threatening drug tariffs.

Mr. Albania said that the plan was not ready for negotiation.

Last week, Australia relieved biogugural restrictions on US beef imports, but the Prime Minister rejected the movement was linked to US trade talks and said that Australia followed a 10 -year examination of the rules of biomheas.

Beyond the new legislation, the conflict in the Middle East will lead to violent debate on the floor of the parliament after saying that Israel has violated international law by preventing the flow of food aid to Gaza.

Arbanese said in ABC’s internal program on Sunday, “quite clearly, it was a violation of international law to stop the delivery of food, which was a decision of Israel in March.”

He stopped saying that Australia would join France to get to know the Palestinian state, but his government said he would decide “at a suitable time”.

“Hamas has no role in a future situation,” he said.

“Hamas, a terrorist organization I found, their actions disgusting.”

Opposition Foreign Spokesman Michaelia Cash said that Albania did not adequately condemn the role of the group in the ongoing clash.

When the Parliament continued, the Public Integrity Center is likely to put pressure on transparency when the parliament continues after the Parliamentary Central Return in 2023-24.

Compared, the Morrison government returned almost half of the FOI requests as a full document in 2021-22.
