Anzac Day

On Anzac Day, we pause to acknowledge the debt all of us owe to Australians who have gone to war in our name.

Across our continent, from the biggest cities to the smallest country town, and in every corner of the world made hallow by the sacrifice of our fallen, we gather in respect, reflection, gratitude and pride.

One hundred and eleven years after the first Gallipoli landing, Anzac Day has come to stand for every generation of Australians who have served.

ANTHONY ALBANESE, PRIME MINISTER: Good afternoon. Today, we held a National Cabinet meeting and it was the third that we have had since the conflict in the Middle East began. It was a very constructive meeting, an important one, to provide the states and territories with updates from the Fuel Security Taskforce Commissioner, Anthea Harris, and also from Minister Bowen and myself. Australia remains steady at level two in our National Fuel Security Plan that has been agreed to by the National Cabinet. Australia's fuel supply outlook remains secure in the near term.
