The Impact of International Trade Agreements on the Regulation and Provision of Medicines in Australia

该项目将向决策者和社区提供关于澳大利亚国际贸易承诺对获得药品的影响的以前无法获得的详细信息和监管选择（通过学术出版物、向政府机构提交的报告和可公开访问的网站）。它将建立一个战略模拟系统和一个具有独特专门知识的持续研究小组，以评估澳大利亚和其他国家未来贸易谈判对健康的影响。该项目特别有利于老年人和贫穷的澳大利亚人，他们的健康更依赖药物，对他们来说，这类费用是国内支出的一个重要组成部分。

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.
