00:00:06,415 --> 00:00:15,775
Speaker 1: You're listening to Amoma Mia podcast. Hi. I'm Cassandra Green

2
00:00:15,855 --> 00:00:18,815
Speaker 1: from Mama MIA's twice daily news podcast, The Quigie with

3
00:00:18,855 --> 00:00:23,815
Speaker 1: your Headlines. For Monday November seventeen, Anthony Albanesi will give

4
00:00:23,815 --> 00:00:27,935
Speaker 1: a major speech spreaking Australia's international trade ties after securing

5
00:00:27,975 --> 00:00:31,495
Speaker 1: several breakthroughs. It follows the abolition of U S tariffs

6
00:00:31,495 --> 00:00:34,375
Speaker 1: on ossie beef and other agricultural exports, as well as

7
00:00:34,455 --> 00:00:37,175
Speaker 1: key security agreements with our neighbors in the Asia Pacific,

8
00:00:37,255 --> 00:00:40,135
Speaker 1: the likes of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. In a

9
00:00:40,175 --> 00:00:43,254
Speaker 1: transcript shared ahead of the speech, Albanesi said Australia is

10
00:00:43,375 --> 00:00:46,374
Speaker 1: uniquely placed as a middle power to further the region's

11
00:00:46,415 --> 00:00:49,974
Speaker 1: shared interests and solve shared problems. He touched on the

12
00:00:50,055 --> 00:00:52,935
Speaker 1: value of APEC, a forum of twenty one member economies

13
00:00:52,974 --> 00:00:56,255
Speaker 1: that promotes free trade and investment across the Asia Pacific region.

14
00:00:57,015 --> 00:00:59,695
Speaker 1: APEC accounts for more than sixty percent of global GDP

15
00:00:59,935 --> 00:01:03,414
Speaker 1: and seventy five percent of Australia's trade. He highlighted that

16
00:01:03,455 --> 00:01:06,615
Speaker 1: one in four Australian jobs depends on calling the impact

17
00:01:06,655 --> 00:01:10,255
Speaker 1: of these relationships enormous. Police in New South Wales have

18
00:01:10,335 --> 00:01:12,735
Speaker 1: charged seven hundred and fifty two people in a four

19
00:01:12,775 --> 00:01:16,295
Speaker 1: day crackdown on domestic violence as Australia continues to grapple

20
00:01:16,335 --> 00:01:20,735
Speaker 1: with curbing violence against women. They laid over sixteen hundred charges,

21
00:01:20,775 --> 00:01:24,455
Speaker 1: conducted over fourteen hundred BAALE checks and made over thirteen

22
00:01:24,535 --> 00:01:28,175
Speaker 1: thousand apprehended domestic violence ordered checks across the operation that

23
00:01:28,215 --> 00:01:32,095
Speaker 1: concluded on Sunday. Authorities said three hundred and ninety five

24
00:01:32,175 --> 00:01:35,615
Speaker 1: breaches of court orders were identified in the blitz. Police

25
00:01:35,615 --> 00:01:38,495
Speaker 1: said they also conducted one hundred and twenty firearm searchers,

26
00:01:38,615 --> 00:01:42,535
Speaker 1: seizing eighty seven firearms and thirty weapons. One in four

27
00:01:42,535 --> 00:01:45,535
Speaker 1: women in Australia has experienced violence from an intimate partner

28
00:01:45,575 --> 00:01:48,495
Speaker 1: since the age of fifteen. According to official data, the

29
00:01:48,495 --> 00:01:51,495
Speaker 1: social and economic cost of domestic violence is estimated to

30
00:01:51,535 --> 00:01:54,895
Speaker 1: be twenty six billion dollars annually. The blitz, known as

31
00:01:54,935 --> 00:01:58,015
Speaker 1: Operation Amarrok, was designed to be a powerful message to

32
00:01:58,055 --> 00:02:01,495
Speaker 1: every victim survivor that they are not alone. Police Minister

33
00:02:01,615 --> 00:02:04,255
Speaker 1: Yasmin Catley said her force has an unwavering commitment to

34
00:02:04,335 --> 00:02:09,175
Speaker 1: keep victims safe. Younger Australians are increasingly choosing not to

35
00:02:09,215 --> 00:02:11,855
Speaker 1: cover up when in the sun, a trend raising concern

36
00:02:11,895 --> 00:02:15,375
Speaker 1: among health officials. Data released on Monday reveals that just

37
00:02:15,415 --> 00:02:18,095
Speaker 1: twenty six percent of people aged thirteen to twenty eight

38
00:02:18,135 --> 00:02:21,375
Speaker 1: consider sun protection extremely important, with a number going to

39
00:02:21,415 --> 00:02:24,135
Speaker 1: thirty three percent for those aged twenty nine to forty four.

40
00:02:24,855 --> 00:02:27,735
Speaker 1: Older generations are far more likely to protect their skin,

41
00:02:27,855 --> 00:02:30,175
Speaker 1: with forty two percent of sixty one to seventy nine

42
00:02:30,255 --> 00:02:33,735
Speaker 1: year olds wanting to cover up during outdoor activities. The

43
00:02:33,735 --> 00:02:37,575
Speaker 1: Cancer Council's National Skin Cancer Committee chairwoman Sally Blaine, so

44
00:02:37,735 --> 00:02:41,575
Speaker 1: the data is concerning. Currently two in three Australians will

45
00:02:41,615 --> 00:02:45,375
Speaker 1: be diagnosed with skin cancer in their lifetime. Both Kmart

46
00:02:45,415 --> 00:02:48,735
Speaker 1: and Target have issued product safety recalls for several colored

47
00:02:48,735 --> 00:02:52,415
Speaker 1: sand products over concerns they may be contaminated with asbestos.

48
00:02:53,095 --> 00:02:56,815
Speaker 1: It comes after laboratory testing found traces of chrystalis festos

49
00:02:56,855 --> 00:03:00,535
Speaker 1: and naturally occurring as festos in the products. According to

50
00:03:00,575 --> 00:03:03,695
Speaker 1: the recall statement, respirable asbestos has not been detected in

51
00:03:03,735 --> 00:03:06,894
Speaker 1: the samples, meaning the release of these fibers is unlikely

52
00:03:06,935 --> 00:03:10,055
Speaker 1: to occur unless the sand is processed by mechanical means

53
00:03:10,255 --> 00:03:14,375
Speaker 1: such as crushing or pulverizing. The recall prompted the Act

54
00:03:14,655 --> 00:03:18,135
Speaker 1: Education Department to announce the closure of seventy schools today.

55
00:03:18,735 --> 00:03:21,935
Speaker 1: On Friday, sixteen schools and six preschools were closed, while

56
00:03:21,935 --> 00:03:25,575
Speaker 1: another eight were partially closed. One school in Queensland was

57
00:03:25,615 --> 00:03:29,415
Speaker 1: also closed on Friday. The South Australian Department for Education

58
00:03:29,535 --> 00:03:32,615
Speaker 1: confirmed colored sand products linked to the contamination scare have

59
00:03:32,735 --> 00:03:34,975
Speaker 1: been found at more than one hundred sites in the state,

60
00:03:35,375 --> 00:03:38,895
Speaker 1: with loose sand founded about twenty sites. If families have

61
00:03:38,975 --> 00:03:41,495
Speaker 1: the recalled products at home, they are asked to dispose

62
00:03:41,535 --> 00:03:45,175
Speaker 1: of it safely based on the recommendations from the Asbestos

63
00:03:45,175 --> 00:03:50,335
Speaker 1: and Silica Safety and Eradication Agency website. Australian Paralympic gold
