ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: I've just had the great privilege of voting in my first referendum this century. That is a reminder that these opportunities do not come around every day. This is an opportunity to make history. A once in a generation chance to recognise our first Australians in our nation's founding document. And to do so, in the way in which we have been requested by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people themselves.

Allen Madden, Gadigal Elder: Good morning my name is Allen Madden, Gadigal elder. For my first song. Welcome to country to me is always an honour and a pleasure. Just to give you a little bit of an insight into where you are and who we are. Prime Minister, Ministers, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to beautiful downtown Redfern, the capital of Sydney.

DAVID SPEERS, HOST: Prime Minister, welcome to the program.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, David.

SPEERS: Six days to go until referendum day. What's your level of confidence? Will Australia vote Yes?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Thanks very much, and thank you to Aunty Matilda and the other Indigenous people who have welcomed us here this morning. And to all of my parliamentary colleagues who are here, it's fantastic so many people turning out. And it's great as well that Kate Carnell is here representing Liberals for Yes. This should be above politics. What is on the referendum ballot paper that I had the right to vote on yesterday, the first referendum held this century.

Thanks to Sheikh Wessam Charkawi for his introduction and to Uncle John for his smoking ceremony.

I would also like to acknowledge Imam Shadi Alsuleiman, President of the Australian National Imams Council, Dr Ibrahim Abu Mohamad, Grand Mufti of Australia, Hafez Alamadine, President of the Lebanese Muslim Association and Sheikh Yahya Safi, Imam of Lakemba Mosque.

It’s such an honour to join you all here in this holy place.

South Australia has a long and proud history of advancing the fair go.

In the 1890s, South Australians led the nation in granting women the right to vote in elections and run for office.

In the 1960s South Australians led the nation on land rights. In the 1970s South Australians led the nation in decriminalising homosexuality.

This week, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are looking to South Australia to help lead the nation again, by voting Yes.

Voting Yes to their request for constitutional recognition through a Voice. 

The Albanese Government is delivering on its commitment to Brisbane Southsiders, with a provider for the Brisbane South Medicare Urgent Care Clinic (Medicare UCC) selected, following an Expression of Interest process.

Cornwall Street Medical Centre will be established as the Brisbane South Medicare UCC and will start seeing patients 23 October 2023.

NARELDA JACOBS, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, thanks for joining us at Midday. Now, opinion polls suggest –

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, good to be with you from Wynnum.

JACOBS: It’s the still undecided voters that could help deliver a Yes victory. What will you be telling voters as they line up today to try and sway them?

I am pleased to invite visitors to The Lodge Gardens on the morning of Saturday 7 October.

Located in Deakin, Canberra, The Lodge has been an official residence for the Prime Minister of Australia since its completion in 1927.

Over the years it has served as a home for families, hosted international delegations and is an historical landmark in Australia’s political history.

VOICEOVER: I present the Honourable Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister.

MATT, HOST: Yeah, he's in the studio with us this morning.

ABBY, HOST: Yeah, and just before we get to some questions that you might have, 13 10 60 about the Voice, we were just talking off air about a visit to The Lodge.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Indeed. You’re in.

ABBY: Thank you so much.

MATT: You invited us, you were asking us to come.
