Senator GALLAGHER (Australian Capital Territory—Minister for the Public Service, Minister for Finance, Minister for Women, Manager of Government Business in the Senate and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:34): I thank Senator Tyrrell for her question and her engagement on this issue for a long period of time. I would say that, from the data that government has been looking at, we're still seeing quite a lot of investment continuing to come into the pharmacy sector. In the five months since we announced the policies, there have been 48 applications to the government to open new pharmacies, 50 per cent more than we received in the same period last year. Senator Ruston interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Ruston! Senator GALLAGHER: In the first month of the policy, another five applications to open new pharmacies were received and five applications were approved. Senator Ruston interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Ruston! Senator GALLAGHER: Do you have a question, Senator Ruston? The PRESIDENT: Minister Gallagher, I have Senator Wong on her feet. Senator Wong: Senator Ruston has been called three times, and she's still interjecting now. As you're talking, President, she is still interrupting. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Minister Wong. Senator Ruston, I called you three times— Senator Ruston interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Ruston! Seriously, that is disrespectful. I called you three times. Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: I would ask for silence across the chamber. Minister Gallagher, please continue. Senator GALLAGHER: Obviously, individual businesses will make decisions around their operating arrangements, and I'm sure the Minister for Health and Aged Care would be happy to engage with you on the particular pharmacies you raise in Tasmania. We have sought to address some of the concerns that were raised around regional pharmacies in particular. The decision we took will allow around 400,000 pharmacies, from our largest rural towns to our most remote communities, to provide more services to more Australians in the way that they operate now. We are also continuing to work with the pharmacy sector on other opportunities there are to increase the services that they provide, including through negotiations for the next replacement agreement. I am happy to see if there's anything further I can provide the senator in relation to the Tasmania-specific elements of her question. The PRESIDENT: Senator Tyrrell, first supplementary?
