PHARMACY Guild of Austalia
National Councillor, Paul Sinclair,
was elected to the Community
Pharmacy Section Executive
Committee at the recent
International Pharmaceutical
Federation Congress in Lisbon.
Nominated alongside candidates
from India, Hungary, Germany,
Uruguay, Jordan, Switzerland,
Portugal, the Netherlands, Canada
and the United States, Sinclair
took out the position and was
joined on the committee by fellow
nominee Karin Graf from Germany.
A total of six positions on the
nine-person committee were up for
grabs, with Sinclair and Graf
taking two, and four members up
for re-election filling the remaining
four spots.
“FIP being an international
organisation, it is important that
the Asia Pacific has representation
at this forum,” said Sinclair.
“I look forward to the opportunity
to contribute to FIP and, in
particular, to the advancement of
community pharmacy in developing
marketplaces.
“Australia is clearly at the leading
edge of community pharmacy
practice and has much to offer on
the world stage,” he added.
