Minister Mark Butler visits an NPSA Wholesale Medicine Distribution Centre

NPSA was very pleased to host Hon Mark Butler MP, Minister for Health and Aged Care at one of our newest high tech Distribution Centres to discuss the vital role the medicine wholesalers play in maintaining the health of all Australians.

 

During a tour of the facility in early March, the Minister saw firsthand the world-class infrastructure and systems that operate across NPSA’s national network of 27 distribution centres.

 

Our investment, along with the Government-funded Community Service Obligation (CSO), ensures that every step in the supply chain is carefully managed and that vital medicines are rapidly and seamlessly dispatched to pharmacy and the patients who need them, not only in the major cities but in every rural and remote part of Australia. 

 

NPSA thanks Minister Butler for taking time to meet our Board, executives and employees onsite and for recognising the importance of our work.
