1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 1: Oliver Peterson six PR Perth Live presenters with us A

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 1: Ali get ahead. Okay, So maschetti sales are banned, are they?

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:11,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are from midday on Wednesday Victorian time. This

4
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 2: comes after there was a shopping center incident over the

5
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 2: weekend in Melbourne, allegedly between a couple of armeders slants

6
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 2: using a machete. So the Victorian Premier just into Allen,

7
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: fronting the cameras first thing this morning and saying from

8
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 2: midday on Thursday, midday on Wednesday, the sale of machees

9
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 2: will be banned until September the first.

10
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 3: The reason she can't put.

11
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: It in for longer than that is the laws would

12
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 2: need to be changed by the State Parliament, so perhaps

13
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 2: they will do that in the coming months. If you

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 2: are court selling a machete after that time, you go

15
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 2: to jail or you could face a two hundred thousand

16
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 2: dollar fine. So a very decisive and quick action being

17
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 2: made thereby the Victorian Premiere.

18
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: Hey, listen, what's the latest from the floods?

19
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 2: So the warriorcamp again. Damn in Sydney has burst, it seems.

20
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 2: This obviously is the dam which provides all of the

21
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: water the drinking water to people who live in Sydney,

22
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 2: apart from that which obviously comes from.

23
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 3: A desalination plant.

24
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 2: But in terms of the floods, we're talking about ten

25
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: thousands residents or ten thousand homes have been affected by this,

26
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 2: up to about fifty thousand people to be honest here

27
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: there have been this placed as a result of the floods.

28
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: There slowly being able to move back into some of

29
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 2: the towns. There are still some floodwaters in some northern

30
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: parts of New South Wales. This is going to cost

31
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: obviously hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars and there

32
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: is no guarantee that people are going to be able

33
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 2: to access their homes this week. So look the images

34
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 2: which are coming out from cattle and livestock stations in

35
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: particular being caught up in the floods is just quite heartbreaking.

36
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 2: After a bunch of cyclones have really hit this part

37
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: of New South Wales and southern Queensland over recent months.

38
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 2: It is something they don't want to be heading into

39
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 2: with winter just around the corner.

40
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: Now I see that the problem with the ADHD medication

41
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: is being fixed in your part of the world by

42
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: GPS being able to scribe being able to begive more

43
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: ability really to prescribe it, right.

44
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, so about one thousand gps will be given this opportunity.

45
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: Over in New South Wales, you know, they reckon that

46
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 2: the number of people on medication for ADHD has surged

47
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 2: by three hundred percent over the last decade.

48
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 3: That rises to four hundred and seventy thousand people in

49
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 3: twenty two to twenty three.

50
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: But it's going to become a lot easy for you.

51
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: I mean, our gps are being asked to do everything.

52
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's the same in New Zealand, Heather,

53
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 2: but our gps are being asked to do mental health

54
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 2: checks now obviously prescribe ADHD medication all because there is

55
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 2: such a backlog as well to go and see psychiatrists

56
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: and psychologists. There's just no there's this front page story

57
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: here in our local paper today in Western Australia where

58
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 2: there is now a secret list for public surgery wait times.

59
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: So if you've got a knee issue, you could be

60
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: waiting up to three years to go in knee fixed.

61
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 3: It's just ridiculous and we're putting all this pressure on

62
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 3: the GPS.

63
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: I don't know that this is such a good idea,

64
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: because I mean, neither how many people do you know

65
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 1: in your life who've declared themselves to be ADHD.

66
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 3: Every other person that I'm met with.

67
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: I've got two members of my family who think there

68
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: are ADHD, and they're almost convinced me that I am.

69
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I will.

70
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: Anyway, but this is the problem. Right, So now I

71
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: think I'm ADHD if I'm living in your part of

72
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: the world, then I just go along to the GP,

73
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: tellim I need the pels. They give it to me.

74
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,839
Speaker 1: Surely what you need is as a specialist to sit

75
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: you down and go nah you actually.

76
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 3: Though, absolutely I agree.

77
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 2: I think they're over prescribing this stuff and there's got

78
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 2: to be a massive warning sign on this, and I

79
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 2: don't think it's just going to be basically what.

80
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 3: Everyon's going to chat with the GP and say, this

81
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 3: is my shopping list? Can you fill it out and

82
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 3: give me a prescription? I don't like it?

83
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: Are you ADHD? By the way?

84
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 3: Nah? I'm not. I mean I don't stop like all

85
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 3: journalists have got ADHD. Don't we like we can't stop better?

86
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you should go see the GP. Okay, Ollie,
