1
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to the update. I'm to Lisa Ryder.

2
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: Australia's mental health sector is in a dire state, with

3
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: a new report showing the number of available beds for

4
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 1: patients nationwide has fallen to its lowest level despite soaring demand.

5
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: The data compiled by the Australian Medical Association shows there

6
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: are just twenty seven inpatient beds per one hundred thousand Aussies.

7
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,479
Speaker 1: President Doctor Daniel McMullen says government help is needed to

8
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: boost mental health capacity in hospitals.

9
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: Many emergency departments do have a dedicated mental health area

10
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,599
Speaker 2: and that goes some way to providing a better safer

11
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 2: environment for these patients, but it's not the whole answer.

12
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 2: We do need to make sure there's dedicated mental health

13
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 2: units with enough capacity, enough staff.

14
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 1: The father of an eleven year old boy killed when

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: a car crashed into his Melbourne school has paid tribute

16
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: to him. In an Instagram post. Mike Davey describes Jack

17
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: as a shooting star who blessed his family with love,

18
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,639
Speaker 1: friendship and kindness, as he can't imagine life without him.

19
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: A growth fund Me page has been set up to

20
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: help the family, already raising over one hundred and forty

21
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Anthony Alberzi has issued his strongest denial yet

22
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: that he requested flying up grades from former Quantius boss

23
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: Allan Joyce during his time as Transport Minister. The PM

24
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 1: says he waited for an audit of all relevant records

25
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: to be completed before responding to the allegations made in

26
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: a new book. Opposition leader Peter Duttan says whether or

27
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: not mister Albanzi asked for the flight upgrades isn't the

28
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: only issue with this week's revelations.

29
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 3: The Prime Minister took a decision not to allow Quitar

30
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 3: into the market. It was against the advice of the department,

31
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 3: against the inclination of the Transport Minister of the day,

32
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 3: and the Prime Minister now declares that he said this

33
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 3: sort of decade long relationship with mister Joyce.

34
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: Overseas and flash floods in Spain have killed at least

35
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: ninety five people and what's been dubbed the worst natural

36
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: disaster to hit the country in decades. Tarentel rain has

37
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: batted at the eastern region of Valencia, sweeping away bridges

38
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: and buildings, and Donald Trump into the stage at his

39
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: Wisconsin rally in a high visit Orange vest. In a

40
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: dig at President Joe Biden's gaff yesterday, the White House

41
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: has been sent into damage control with less than a

42
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: week to go until the election, after the president label

43
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: Trump supporters as garbage. Sport and entertainment annexed. In sport,

44
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: Marcus Harris, Nathan McSweeney, Sam Constance and Cameron Bancroft are

45
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: all in the Aussie A side taking on India in Mackay.

46
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,679
Speaker 1: The Test hopeful was auditioning for the vacant opening batsman role,

47
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: and Eagles AFLW coach Daisy Pierce says they haven't given

48
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 1: up a hope of securing a fifth and final win

49
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: when they take on the Swans in their final game

50
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 1: of the season. In entertainment news, a new song by

51
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: late singer Liam Payne, set to be released this week,

52
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 1: will be delayed. His producer Sam Pounds has taken to

53
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: socials saying it's not the right time and he'll let

54
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: Liam's family decide when to debut the single. Coldplay has

55
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 1: played an emotional tribute to Shane warn to open the

56
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 1: band's Ossie tour at Docklands Stadium in the cricketers' hometown

57
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: of Melbourne, Chris Martin dedicating SPA to his great mate,

58
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: and the stars of Gladiator Too have walked the red

59
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: carpet in Sydney at the Blockbuster's Australian premiere. The highly

60
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: anticipated sequel to hit cinemas on November fourteen. And that's

61
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,080
