	John Cain II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		John Cain (born 26 April 1931), Australian politician, was Labor Premier of the state of Victoria from 1982 to 1990.
		Cain was born in Melbourne, the son of John Cain, leader of the Labor Party in Victoria from 1937 to 1957 and three times Premier.
		This was followed by a budgetary crisis that the government was unable to deal with, partly because of the unwillingness of the unions and the factions within the Labor Party to allow Cain to respond flexibly to the situation.

		Premiers pointed out that the current health care system was designed some 40 years ago on the understanding that it would be cost-shared on a 50-50 basis between the federal government and the provincial/territorial governments.

		Premiers concluded that provinces and territories should utilise a common approach for approval of coverage for new drugs, for determination of cost-benefit of new drugs, and appropriate utilization and cost-benefits of drugs, and in the determination of the scope of practice amongst health professions.

		One of the most significant events at the conference was the announcement by the Premier of NSW of BioFirst, the biotechnology strategy for NSW.
		Importantly, many participants commented that the Premier strongly emphasised supporting Australia's efforts in the biotechnology stake globally, and an acknowledgement that competition in this industry is global, and that States, as centres of economic growth in biotechnology, need to look primarily at the international competition rather than State competition.
		This emphasis on "State competition" at the BIO2001 Conference was unfortunate as the two Premiers from Victoria and Queensland at the Conference agreed quite openly that they would work to build "Australian" biotechnology through "healthy" competition.
