Early days but thank you SA for leading the country on uptake of the flu shot so far. If you’ve been thinking about it, now is a great time to get yours too – at your local pharmacy, GP or other immunisation provider. SA Health Immunisation Coalition The Pharmacy Guild of Australia AMA Media

BREAKING: Coalition to pay for its reckless election promises by reversing the public health ban on vapes and taxing vapes by $3.6 billion. This retrograde step reverses the strong public health action to help reduce the number of kids getting addicted to nicotine.

I’m out helping Claire Clutterham in Sturt today. Because she’s someone we need in Canberra. So we can continue to deliver for South Australians.

I thank the Prime Minister for appointing me as Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations and am honoured to continue to serve in an Albanese Labor Cabinet. Ministers Burke and Watt have made an outstanding contribution in this role in our first term of Government.

In 1999 Toys R Us sacked Amanda Rishworth MP and offered her job back if she signed one of Howard’s AWAs. The SDA Union stepped in, stood up for Amanda and won. I’m incredibly proud that my great friend Amanda Rishworth will today become Australia’s Workplace Relations Minister

Amanda Rishworth MP knows what happens when government policy enables big business to take advantage of workers. She also knows how important it is to have a strong union movement standing by the side of working people in this country. Congratulations Amanda!

Aerial shark patrols along the state’s coastline will be extended until the June long weekend, following unseasonably warm weather and an increase in shark sightings at popular beaches.

I never cease to be amazed by the quality of the people who work in our hospitals. And now there is a lot more of them. We promised 300 additional nurses - we’ve recruited 1,462. And we’ve recruited 646 additional doctors - more than six times the 100 promised. This will help
