ANDREW GEE, MEMBER FOR CALARE: Well, good morning, folks, thank you for joining us here in Eugowra. And it's terrific to welcome the Prime Minister back to Eugowra fulfilling that commitment that he made, that he would visit again and see for himself the progress and hear the issues that local residents have. The rebuilding and reconstruction process here in Eugowra has been a long and hard road. And as you can see, by walking and driving around Eugowra, that work continues.

ALEX JAMES, PRIME MINISTER: The Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese is on his way to Eugowra this morning to talk with locals about flood recovery efforts there. The Commonwealth is working with the State Government to fund recovery measures, but with so, much to do, how far will that funding go? The Prime Minister is with us this morning. Prime Minister, thank you very much for joining us on the program today.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, Alex. I'm very much looking forward to being back in the Central West today.

The Albanese Government has entered the single largest defence export agreement in our nation’s history, to supply Australian-made armoured vehicles to Germany.

Under the agreement, more than 100 Boxer Heavy Weapon Carrier vehicles will be built by Rheinmetall at its Military Vehicle Centre of Excellence in Redbank, Queensland and exported for use by the German Army.

Labor’s extension of Paid Parental Leave became law this week – and more than 180,000 Australian families are expected to benefit.

By 2026, every family with a new baby will be able to access a total of six months paid leave, shared between the two parents.

And single parents will be able to access all 26 weeks.

Representing a $1.2 billion investment, it is the biggest boost to PPL since it was first introduced by the former Labor Government in 2011.

The Albanese Labor Government is proud to contribute $3.5 million to support the Lowitja O’Donoghue Foundation to honour the remarkable legacy of the late Yankunytjatjara woman and support the next generation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nurses and public sector leaders.

The Lowitja O’Donoghue Foundation was established in 2022 with support from the Albanese Government to create pathways for First Nations people to carry forward Dr O’Donoghue’s vision for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians.

Labor’s changes to Paid Parental Leave – expanding the scheme to a full six months – will now be law after the Paid Parental Leave Amendment (More Support for Working Families) Bill 2023 was today passed by the Senate.

That means new parents will be eligible for more Paid Parental Leave from 1 July this year with the passage of this historic legislation.

More than 180,000 families are expected to benefit from the expansion of the scheme each year with expecting parents able to pre-claim from March 26.

In a time of continuing global economic uncertainty, it’s more important than ever for Australia to build our self-reliance and invest in our economic resilience.

That’s what our Government’s vision for a future made in Australia is all about: a stronger, more diversified economy with greater opportunity and security for all.

Realising this vision requires us to seize the unique opportunities and natural advantages that can see Australia lead the world.

DON FARRELL, MINISTER FOR TRADE & TOURISM: Well, welcome to everyone here today. What a magnificent day to be in Adelaide, in South Australia, but what a magnificent day to be at this fantastic historical vineyard of Penfolds. I'm here, of course, with representatives of Penfolds, but more importantly, the Prime Minister.

CLINT STANAWAY, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese joins us now live from Adelaide on Weekend Today. Prime Minister, good morning. Good to see you.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: G’day, good to be with you.

STANAWAY: Your Government covered that 15 per cent increase back in 2022. Will you foot the bill for $20 billion over the next four years?

MONIQUE WRIGHT, HOST: Morning to you PM, good to see you. Looks like a beautiful day where you are. You're at the Magill Estate just outside of Adelaide to talk wine tariffs, which we're going to chat about in a moment. But first, on the immigration detainees issue.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning.
