ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER:National Cabinet meet in Brisbane today to deliver a range of priorities for Australians with a focus on more secure and affordable housing. Delivering more housing supply is a vital part of National Cabinet’s plan to ensure communities thrive as they grow. All governments recognise the best way to ensure that more Australians have a safe and affordable place to call home is to boost housing supply.

DANNY CHIFLEY, HOST: We’ve got a special guest phoning in at the moment. Who do we have on the line right now?

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: G'day, it's Anthony Albanese here. How are you going?

CHIFLEY: Very well, thank you very much. That'd be Prime Minister of Australia, Anthony Albanese.

PRIME MINISTER: Indeed, indeed.

The Albanese Government is working with states and territories to deliver the Help to Buy Scheme, supporting up to 40,000 low and middle income families to purchase a home of their own.

This will bring home ownership back into reach for thousands of Australians who have been locked out of the housing market.

The Government will provide an equity contribution to eligible participants of up to 40 per cent for new homes and 30 per cent for existing homes.

Well thank you Kate.

It's terrific to be here with you, with Minister Pat Conroy, with the representatives of the Pacific who are here to launch these Pacific Rugby League Championships.

I do want to also acknowledge the work of all of those who've made this happen, including the coaches, Mal Meninga and Ben Jeffries.

Welcome.

It is an honour to be here to launch these championships.

The Albanese Government is partnering with the National Rugby League to establish the new Pacific Rugby League Championships.

The inaugural Pacific Championships will feature women’s and men’s teams from Australia, Cook Islands, Fiji, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, and Tonga.

The Government is committing $7 million over the next two years so that seven Pacific countries are included in the Championships and for games to be played in Papua New Guinea and Fiji as well as Australia and New Zealand.

JASON HAWKINS, HOST: Albo's in the house.

LAUREN PHILLIPS, HOST: Albo, good morning.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: 'Straya.

PHILLIPS: 'Straya, that's us. Good morning, welcome to the show.

PRIME MINISTER: Good to be here. Thanks for having us.

PHILLIPS: I always get nervous when you're around. And they tease me about it.

PRIME MINISTER: No you don't.

Anthony Albanese, Prime Minister: This is the third meeting of the Cabinet to be held in Queensland. And it's great to be back here. And most of us, of course, will spend the week here into the weekend.

The first thing I want to say is that all of us are relieved that the four Australians who were missing in Indonesia have been found.

We thank the DFAT officials and Australian government agencies who have assisted with the search and rescue efforts.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Can I join you in congratulating the wonderful William Barton on his awards.

VALENTINE: Yeah, he's such a magnificent musician. If you haven't encountered his music, just look him up and start engaging with it. He's a composer. His didg playing is incredible. Have you ever heard him sing?

AMANDA KELLER, HOST: The Matildas have secured a spot in the Semi-final. Another public holiday will be on the cards for New South Wales, other states around the country have to decide those things for themselves. Someone who was there with the sell-out crowd, the atmosphere must have been extraordinary was our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese. He joins us now. Good morning, Prime Minister.

Well, thanks so much Alan and I also begin by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which we're meeting today and pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging.

And I am proud to lead a Government which will give every Australian the opportunity to vote for Constitutional recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at a referendum later this year.

I want to acknowledge my parliamentary colleagues who are here, the executive and staff of Qantas who are here, the people from the Yes23 campaign.
