Answer

I am advised by Pharmac that it commissioned one independent review for the period 27 November 2023 to 18 March 2026. The Pharmac Board commissioned the Pharmac Workplace Culture: A Five Year Horizon report in November 2024 by Debbie Francis. I am advised that the cost of this review was $70,610 (excluding GST).
