DR MARK BALDOCK: This is the first integrated, extended hours medical, pharmacy, pathology and imaging clinic in Tasmania. We can provide assessment, treatment and care for urgent but not life-threatening conditions. We have a thorough triage process to ensure that it is appropriate for us to treat patients who present to us here. The vision of Your Hobart Doctor is to make medical care accessible to the community.
I am pleased to announce the Governor-General has accepted my recommendation to appoint Adam Fennessy PSM as Secretary of the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry.
CLAIRE MURPHY, HOST: Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, thank you for coming on the show today. Why has this referendum become so complicated? Why does it seem like no one has been able to clearly explain what the Voice is, what it does and who supports it?
PRIME MINISTER, ANTHONY ALBANESE: It's fantastic to be here in Canberra, having this week been in Western Australia, in South Australia, in New South Wales and in Tasmania. What I get, wherever I go around the country, is that there is momentum behind the Yes campaign. People understand what this campaign is about. It's about changing our founding document to recognise the privilege that we have of sharing this continent with the oldest continuous culture on earth.
PRIME MINISTER, ANTHONY ALBANESE: Are we going to win? What way it everyone voting? Fantastic. Well, it was a great launch this week in in Adelaide and I think it's such a positive campaign, that's so important to change the country for the better. A pretty modest change, asking for recognition, asking as well for an advisory group, a Voice, so we can listen to people. That's how you get better results. That's what this campaign is about.
AMANDA RISHWORTH, MINISTER FOR SOCIAL SERVICES: Well, it's really, really wonderful to have the Prime Minister, Minister Wells, Maggie Beer here at Eldercare in Seaford. And I'd like to thank Jane, who is also the General Manager across Eldercare, aged care for residential facilities. This is a wonderful facility that's been serving the community since 2008. Meeting some of the residents here, it's clear that this is their new home when life in their own homes becomes too difficult.
My fellow Australians
For many years, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have advocated for Constitutional Recognition through a Voice.
Our Government – along with every single State and Territory Government - has committed to it.
Legal experts have endorsed it.
People on all sides of the Parliament have backed it.
Faith groups and sporting codes and local councils and businesses and unions have embraced it.
An army of volunteers from every part of this great nation are throwing all their energy behind it.
ALLISON LANGDON, HOST: Prime Minister, you know what I think has been missing from the Voice debate and that is heart and soul, it's become a political dog fight. How do you get that back?
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: This is about faith, hope, and love. And indeed, it is about bringing Australia together, it is positive and the great thing about today's launch that I found was how positive it was.
ANDY TAYLOR, HOST: Prime Minister, good morning and thanks for your time.
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, great to be with you again.
TAYLOR: It is great to have you. You launched in South Australia and you're heading to Tasmania today. As I said two states that are key that surveys are showing look likely to vote No in this referendum. Why do you think Tasmanians aren't sold on the Voice to Parliament?
VIRGINIA TRIOLI, HOST: Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister of Australia. Good morning, good to talk to you again.
ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good morning, Virginia, and congratulations on the big announcement that you've made today and I wish you well in your pursuit of a new arts program for the ABC.
