Leave granted for procedural matters to be dealt with on one motion without formality. Motion by the Hon.

Bills read a first time and ordered to be printed. Second readings set down as orders of the day for a later hour. Pursuant to sessional orders Formal Business Notices of Motions proceeded with. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE Formal Business Notices of Motions Private Members' Business item Nos 1089, 1091, 1092, 1093, 1110 and 1167 outside the Order of Precedence objected to as being taken as formal business. HEPATITIS C Motion by the Hon. AMANDA FAZIO agreed to: 1. That this House notes that a new report by the Boston Consulting Group on the Economic Impact of Hepatitis C shows that "For every one dollar spent on treating hepatitis C in Australia, four more dollars are currently spent on the consequences of not treating, or curing people with hepatitis C". 2. That this House: (a) welcomes the decision of the Federal Government to fund boceprevir and telaprevir on the PhBS as, from public health perspectives and from a health budget point of view, this makes sense, as the use of these new therapies for hepatitis C will help prevent around 2,400 cases of liver cancer and over 2,200 premature deaths and avert the need for over 800 liver transplants amongst
