Free sunscreen for every home in Australia

Why isn’t an allocation of free sunscreen provided to every home in Australia every summer?

We receive the Yellow Pages every year and never request them.

I know that people may choose not to apply the sunscreen, but surely it would reduce the chances of people going unprotected in the sun.

Whilst I’m at it, shouldn’t local councils employ a person to walk up and down the beaches and offer sunscreen to anyone who wants it?

Health care costs would surely be reduced in the long term with a proactive approach to skin cancer as opposed to knee jerk reactions.
