100Special arrangements

#### 100 Special arrangements (1) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, make special arrangements for, or in relation to, providing that an adequate supply of pharmaceutical benefits will be available to persons: (a) who are living in isolated areas; or (b) who are receiving treatment in circumstances in which pharmaceutical benefits (other than those to which subsection (1A) applies) are inadequate for that treatment; or (c) if the pharmaceutical benefits covered by the arrangements can be more conveniently or efficiently supplied under the arrangements. (1A) This subsection applies to: (a) pharmaceutical benefits to which subsection 85AA(1) or (2) applies; and (b) pharmaceutical benefits supplied in the circumstances referred to in subsection 85AA(3). (2) The Minister may, by legislative instrument, vary or revoke a special arrangement made under subsection (1). (3) This Part, and regulations or other instruments made for the purposes of this Part, have effect subject to a special arrangement made under subsection (1). > Note: For example, for a drug declared under subsection 85(2), it does not matter if a special arrangement for its supply is inconsistent with a determination made under subsection 85(3) or section 85A for the drug.
