staff have collected 350,000
signatures on the petition calling

take action to address the impact
on jobs and patient services of the

Guild executive director, David
Quilty, said: “I wish to congratulate
the thousands of pharmacists
and pharmacy assistants around
Australia for their mammoth effort
highlighting the detrimental impact
of the Government’s shock change
to price disclosure”.
And Guild national president Kos
Sclavos added: “I wish to thank our
patients who are supporting us in
such huge numbers. They know
their services are at risk and they
know the wonderful staff that look
after them each and every day have
their jobs on the line.”The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 29 Aug 13 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 29 Aug 13
