ALI CLARKE, HOST: The Prime Minister of the country, Anthony Albanese. Good morning.

MAX BURFORD, HOST: I just turned the microphone on for the Prime Minister.

CLARKE: Do you know what? Shane Lowe has been so nervous about you coming in, not just because you come in with, you know, the Federal Police.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Was that him singing?

CLARKE: Yeah, that's him singing.

PRIME MINISTER: Awesome effort.

ANDREW COHEN, CEO FORHEALTH: My name is Andrew Cohen. I'm the CEO of ForHealth. I'm joined today by Dr Carolyn Rosa, our clinical director, and we're excited to welcome the Honourable Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister of Australia, the Honourable Mark Butler, Health Minister and local member for Hindmarsh, and the Honourable Peter Malinauskas, Premier of South Australia and also in the background, the Honourable Chris Picton, Health and Wellbeing Minister for South Australia.

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and I pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging.

Thank you all for being here today and for the opportunity to say a few words.

The spirit of co-operation and the sense of focus and purpose in this room – is a credit to all of you and an inspiration to our country.

We may still be in the first month of spring – but Australians are already fighting fires.

Daniel Andrews is a person of deep conviction, great compassion and fierce determination and he brought all those qualities to his time as Premier of Victoria.

Dan has always been a builder and in education, health, infrastructure and housing he has built an extraordinary legacy that will endure for generations.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Can I pay tribute to my friend, Daniel Andrews, with the decision that he has made to stand down after nine years as the Premier of Victoria. Daniel Andrews is a man of great conviction, enormous compassion and a fierce determination to make a difference. And he has made such a positive difference to the lives of Victorians. You can measure his contribution through nine years, three election victories, the last one with an increased majority. But what you can really measure it on is the fact that he is a builder.

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we meet and I pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging.

I am proud to lead a Government that will give every Australian the opportunity to vote Yes for recognition, vote Yes for listening and vote Yes for better results on October 14.

I’m very pleased to be here to launch Andrew Charlton’s new book.

To be fair, he did put me on the cover. But the inside is even better!

JODIE ODDY, HOST: Can you please say very good morning to our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, good morning.

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

ODDY: Thank you so much for joining us, this is a real thrill for us.

PRIME MINISTER: My absolute pleasure.

TOM MANN, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is with me. Good morning.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, good to be with you and looking forward to being in Whyalla this morning.

MANN: So Prime Minister, can you explain today's announcement for Port Bonython?

I begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we're meeting today and pay my respects to their elders, past, present and emerging.

And so I'm very proud to be Prime Minister of government that is giving everyone in this room the opportunity to recognise the First Nations people of this country in our constitution with the referendum to be held on October 14 so that we can have constitutional recognition, so we can listen, and so we can get better results.

This morning, the Home Affairs Minister asked the Secretary of her Department, Michael Pezzullo, to stand aside while an Australian Public Service Commission investigation is undertaken into the allegations reported overnight.

Mr Pezzullo has agreed to step aside pending the independent review.

Former Australian Public Service Commissioner Lynelle Briggs will be conducting the inquiry.

Stephanie Foster will act as the Secretary of the Department of Home Affairs.
